Thank you for visiting my page
I am attempting to run my 5th Marathon in 7 months (Berlin, Chicago, New York, Tokyo and now London next Sunday 23rd April)....it is fair to say my body is starting to creak.
I have been semi looking forward to London as it is an amazing experience - I ran for my first ever marathon in 2021 but it felt like something was missing this time ....so I have agreed last minute (less than a week to go!) to run for North London Hospice again....and now I am really up for it as it is such an amazing cause and purpose for me.
Every year they care for over 3,500 patients with a life limiting illness with their aim being "to provide the best of life, at the end of life, for everyone". They support families, friends and carers too. Being a charity, all their services are provided free of charge hence why fundraising is so vital to them. They need to raise over £10m p.a. to remain open! I have experienced their incredible service first hand to many friends' families - it is so so important to their patients and their families and the staff are all amazing too!
Thank you for any support or donations you can provide - it is much appreciated. I am going to match the first £5,000 too to help get things going.
I hope to see some of you at the race cheering us all on!!
