Story

It has always been my wish to run a marathon. In April 2019, I ran my first ever marathon in Milan... slowly... at 5.5hr. :) Carmen, who didn't like running, ran 42km. It was a fantastic feeling to have this wish come true.

Next year, in March 2020, I would like to fundraise for Make-A-Wish UK by running the London Landmarks Half Marathon. It is for a selfish reason - I need a goal to keep in shape - and with a bonus to help make a child's wish come true! I would like to invite you to join me on this journey. Please consider donating just GBP 10. 

If you can be in London on March 29, consider to join the run or reach out so we can meet!

Make-A-Wish UK grant magical wishes to enrich the lives of children and young people fighting life-threatening conditions. Granting their wish provides seriously ill children with hope for the future, strength to cope and resilience to fight their condition. They’re given quality time away from the daily realities of living with their condition and given the chance to make magical memories they can treasure forever – whatever their future may hold. We want to transform the lives of 1,000 children this year by granting their One True Wish!
