Story

I will be running the London marathons in April 2024 to raise money for Spinal Research! Someone sustains a spinal cord injury every four hours in the UK. Living with an SCI often means a lifetime of health and care costs, as well as the threat of secondary healthcare complications. Spinal Research is the UKs leading medical charity focused on the repair and restoration of the spinal cord, and we exist to beat paralysis.Spinal Research do not receive governmental funding; all projects are funded by donations.With your help, we can #BeatParalyis.

So a new year brings new challenges. I will be challenging myself to do something different this year. I'll be doing lots of drawings. Sounds easy?

I'll be doing many drawings, not with my hands, but with my legs. You heard it right with my legs. The challenge is to draw 75+ #GpsArts with my legs on the map (I've completed 62 now, and the journey still continues as I wish to help out even more) and also doing the London marathon 2024.

Have you tried to do any GPS Art before? It's not as easy as I thought it will be, it's tough, it takes lots of time and effort, but it's all fun. The best thing is, you get to stay active, keep running, and to be able to help people with paralysis to live an active life along the way.

Why fundraising to help paralysed people?

Few years ago back in 2018, I remember training hard for months preparing myself for my first world major marathon which will be the Berlin Marathon. So 3 weeks before race day, I had an accident and I cracked one of my left toes which I've ended up
