Story

On the 26th April 2015 I ran the London Marathon for Antony Nolan one day before I turned 40!

On the 27th April 2025 I will run the London Marathon on my 50th Birthday!! I can’t think of a better way to celebrate such a milestone, than by running 26.2 miles (ok I lie, there are lots of ways – most involve alcohol, food or laying on a sunbed)!!!

I'm running the London Marathon for Prostate Cancer UK which is a charity that is very close to my heart! Having had a family member go through successful treatment and another recently diagnosed, it makes me even more determined to get round the Marathon course. All whilst raising awareness and fundraising for such an amazing charity as I know first hand how difficult a time it is, but what amazing teams, treatment and support we have in the UK.

Prostate cancer affects 1 in 8 men in the UK. So that's someone’s dad, partner, brother, son, grandad, uncle or mate!

I'm raising money to help fund lifesaving research and support for men and their families affected by prostate cancer. I hope that you will support me as every penny makes a difference.....

I'll also be looking to run some fundraising events and have some training runs so will add these as organised.....
