I am running my very first London Marathon for the My Name'5 Doddie Foundation- A charity that supports patients and families of loved ones going through MND- Motor Neuron Disease. 

Like many others I was deeply upset with the passing of Doddie, a Scotland international who sadly passed away late November, just 52.

MND Is hugely challenging for both patients and loved ones and My Name'5 Doddie make it their priority to beat MND while instilling love, fun and hope into those affected, limiting the impact of MND on lives and having fun along the way!

I have been training for the London Marathon since November, around the time Doddie passed, it has not been easy but I know having this charity behind me will help me cross that line!

As many of you know it has been a dream of mine to take part in this event, I hope you can all get behind me and support this amazing cause!

Thank you!
