The greatest marathon in the world. For the last 85 years, Diabetes UK has been at the forefront of diabetes research. We've discovered how to put type 2 diabetes into remission and were working day in, day out to find a cure.

Story

I lost my mother 2 years ago suddenly from a heart attack at 69. Mum suffered with Diabetes and this certainly was a contributed of her passing and a barrier to her not living a longer life. I have several immediate family members with the disease and some close friends! 

Diabetes can be bought on by lifestyle but also by genetics, or a combination of both. Early treatment and awareness is key to lead a normal life, as is continued research! 

This is why I am running the London Marathon, 26.2 miles in April 2023 for Diabetes UK. It’s my third time but this one is the most important and special yet. Please help me to raise a minimum of £2,100 for Mum. Thank you in advance. 

Love Adam X
