On 12th April 2026 I will be running the Brighton Marathon, my first 26.2 mile run since 2003.

With the help and support from all of you I hope to raise £500 for Marie Curie.

With 3 months to go I’m working hard to increase fitness and mileage to complete this challenge.

With over 137 Parkruns under my belt, week in week out I have a good base level so hope to equal or better my previous best of 3hrs 32mins in London 2003.

MarieCurie has been there when we needed support helping our loved ones in those final weeks and days.

TeamMarieCurie runners will be taking to the streets of Brighton and running 26.2 miles. All the money raised will help Marie Curie provide vital care and support to people living with a terminal illness, and their families at the toughest time.

£3 helps fund a meal for a patient in one of our hospices.

£26 helps fund an hour of bereavement support by phone or webchat.

£207 helps fund nine hours of overnight nursing care in a patient's home.
