Story

I'm running the London Marathon for Ethan who bravely continues to fight a terrible rare disease called Mucopolysaccharide (MPS). Ethan is under the life time care of Great Ormand Street hospital and has to endure numerous surgeries to slow down the progression of this life limiting disease. I first heard about his fight through a good friend as was immediately touched by how brave he was. Been the same age as my eldest, Cahan, he is never far from my thoughts and when I'm struggling on a run, his determination spurs me on. The MPS Society need your help to find a cure for Ethan and other wonderful children like him. Please help if you can x
