Story
I'm honoured to be running London Marathon for Stroke Association.
This will be an incredibly special & meaningful experience because:
🎉 It’s my first ever London Marathon,
🎉 I’m celebrating my 40th Birthday,
🎉 It’s also 40 years since my Dad ran the London Marathon in 1982.
🎉 It’s my dream to share this magical experience and celebrate together at the finish, 40 years on.
🎉 My Dad inspired me to start running in 2017. We celebrated his 60th Birthday by running Great North Run together…
🎉 …Ultimately, it’s about inspiring my children, in the same way and showing them anything is possible.
🎉 …Ultimately, it’s about inspiring my children, in the same way and showing them anything is possible.
I want do that whilst shining a light & celebrating Stroke Assocation’s amazing work supporting & rebuilding lives after a stroke. It will be a once in a lifetime experience and a great team effort.
Thank you #TeamStroke for this opportunity 🙏
Dreams do come true.
