I'm running 13.1 miles to help raise money and awareness for The Lily Foundation in beating mitochondrial disease. Every day in the UK a child is born with this genetic condition that has no treatment or cure. The disease means that the cells of the body can not make enough energy to survive and eventually die. This effects vital organs and can lead to organ failure. The condition is life limiting and too many lives are taken too early. The Lily foundation is a dedicated charity working to change this through funding vital research to eradicate the disease and supporting families affected with the aim to improve their life for the better! This is a charity close to my heart as Lily was my best friends little sister. I want to help them and would appreciate your help too! Thank you
