As someone who came to running in my 40's, I wish that I had learned about its physical, mental and social benefits when I was much younger. That is why I am really pleased to be running the London Marathon to raise money for The Outrunners.

The Outrunners bring the message to young people in East London that running and movement can be empowering and fun. They get young people running, jumping and moving - in their schools, communities, careers and towards their goals. For instance, they provide after-school clubs for 1000 young people each year.

Please join me in helping The Outrunners to support the next generation to build their fitness, their social and emotional skills and gain access to the opportunities they need to progress and thrive.

Thank you.
