I am running the London Marathon!!  😅

I was always a sprinter in my younger years and my passion for distance running started when I was at university. It was not only a great form of exercise but also a great way to clear your head! I started my running journey on the shores of Bognor Regis leading to me completing the Bognor 10k with my family. This progressed to completing the Woking half marathon 5 years ago, which was an incredibility rewarding experience, and also a very sore one! 

 Since starting running, I have always had a goal of completing the London Marathon, and this dream became a reality through meeting the amazing people at White Lodge at a community regatta, where I was rowing in a crew for White Lodge Centre. White lodge are an incredible Centre based in Chertsey, who aim to enable ability by supporting people with disabilities, their families and carers to lead fulfilling lives.  I had raised money for White Lodge before through my role at school due to all of the support they had given to our students and their families. Meeting Tanya and the team at the regatta just emphasised the amazing work they do and the love they have for helping people, which has spurred me on to accept this challenge. 

Thank you so much for donating in support of the biggest fitness challenge I have ever taken on. White Lodge is such a worthy cause and I hope to do them proud and raise the full amount to support all the amazing work they do. Wish me luck!! I will need it!  🤪
