Hi everyone, for those that don't know me, I am Marco Matteucci and I am the final London marathon runner for VAT IT. 
Every day each one of us wake up and we have a choice. We can choose to wake up and embrace the day or we can choose to lie in. The fast-paced world of today is putting an increasing amount of pressure on each one of us impacting our mental wellbeing and if our mental state collapses it makes even the simplest choices extremely challenging. I love the initiatives of Jami whereby they provide emotional support and expert advice to those with mental health needs, and I could not think of a better organization to be raising funds for, considering that we work in a fast-paced professional environment that has daily pressures on each of us and pushes our mental state to the limits. For me, running has always been an escape from life's pressures and a way to give myself a chance to think and clear my thoughts. Running the London marathon has given me a very clear goal and objective and the fact that we get to help others in the process makes it even more special.
