Story
Welcome to my London Landmarks Half Marathon profile page for Diabetes UK.
In April 2023, I will be taking on the huge challenge of running the London Landmarks Half Marathon for Diabetes UK. My friends eldest daughter was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes in Feb 2020 and I have watched her with the daily struggles that come with managing her glucose levels ever since. Watching her determination and strength has given me the inspiration to push myself out my comfort zone to train and run 13.1 miles.
Diabetes UK help fund amazing advancement in technology over the last few years, allowing children like Lilly to have access to insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitors which help make managing this condition that little bit easier, and hopefully someday soon Diabetes UK will help find a cure for Type 1!
Lilly is my inspiration for running the marathon 💖
