Caught up in the hype and the atmosphere of the marathon when my partner ran last October I decided to apply for a charity place - knowing that it was a bit of a long shot and I probably wouldnt get one.

I got a place with Mind so unbelievably I will actually be running London marathon!

I’m really proud to run for mind because it’s a charity that means a lot to me and I know does really fantastic work.

This will be such a huge challenge but this is a bucket list thing for me.  I will train hard, put in the effort, raise money for an awesome charity and hopefully do everyone proud! 

Any donation is welcome to help me raise the minimum £2000 target and I really appreciate any sponsorship!
