Story

The running shoes are on again, this time I will be taking on the Zurich Marathon as it has been 10 years since I ran my first (and only) marathon in Dubai and for some reason I committed to one a decade.... so here we are.  This time I am running to raise money for Bipolar UK.   My daughter-in-law to be... (Wedding day pending!), Maisie,  was recently diagnosed with bipolar and this charity has been a tremendous support not only for her but for my son Johnny and the rest of the family.  I'm continually amazed at the bravery Maisie has shown in accepting and learning to live with bipolar.  She is going through her own journey and with additional support & funding, Bipolar UK can continue to support and educate others going through theirs.
