This year I will be running the Leeds half marathon on May 11th having already ran my first half marathon on March 23rd raising money for the Lauren Currie Twilight foundation supporting people with vasculitis.

I feel it’s important to raise awareness about this auto-immune illness as I knew absolutely nothing about it myself before August last year until I met my girlfriend Saffie Adams who has vasculitis. What she has been through and still has to go through has made me more determined than ever to keep up my running and do my first half marathon this March in Sheffield.
