Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

At the end of 2019 a good running friend from our club was taken ill with Encephalitis whilst still in her 20’s.. This was devastating to all her family, friends and loved ones. The charity was a great source of information and hope along with support for those that needed it.

I was due to run the 2020 London Marathon for the charity whilst Alex was still battling Encephalitis in hospital and the extent  of her recovery, at that point, uncertain. 

Due to Covid that wasn't able to happen, but I'm so happy to be running it 2 and a half years later having seen the incredible recovery Alex has made with the help of the hospitals, charity and her own sheer determination.

Alex is back running regularly at the club and is now married to, her then fiance, Tom. The challenges she has overcome has been inspirational and I hope to do her proud at London along with raising as much as we can to provide continued support to those in need.
