I'm taking on the TCS London Marathon 2027 for Beat!
In 2027, I’ll be taking on the London Marathon and running 26.2 miles for Beat, a charity that is incredibly close to my heart.
Between the ages of 15–17, I struggled with an eating disorder. With the support of my family and specialist professionals, I was able to recover and build a healthy, happy life beyond my eating disorder. I want to use this opportunity to raise awareness and, most importantly, show others that recovery is possible.
This marathon represents so much more to me than completing 26.2 miles. I’m running to celebrate how far I’ve come, but also for my family, who supported me every step of the way and continue to be there for me today.
I’d be incredibly grateful for any donation, no matter how big or small. Your support will help Beat continue to provide vital information, support and hope to people affected by eating disorders and their families.
Right now, at least 1 in 20 children, young people and adults in the UK have an eating disorder – and the emotional and physical toll also affects millions of loved ones. But there is hope. With better understanding, faster diagnosis and proper treatment, recovery is possible.
