Story

I’m taking on the Sydney Marathon this year in support of Cure Leukaemia — a cause that’s incredibly close to my heart.

This is going to be a real challenge for me, as I’ve never run a marathon before (May update - training marathon complete!)… but that’s exactly why I’m doing it. Pushing myself outside my comfort zone feels like the least I can do in support of such an important cause.

As part of the journey, I’ll be running the Southampton Marathon this May as a practice run (update: got there... in the end), building up to the big one in Sydney.

If you’re able to donate, every single penny makes a difference. And if you can’t, your words of encouragement honestly mean just as much.

If you’d like to follow along (and keep me accountable!), you can track my progress over on Strava.

Thank you so much for your support 💙
