Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am running in memory of my wonderful husband, whose life was cut short at the age of 39, after a battle with cancer.  

The tragedy of losing Ben, my best friend, has turned my world upside down and training for the London Marathon has helped give me purpose, a way to navigate through even the toughest of days. 

I hope to make Ben immensely proud by completing the marathon and raising money for The Maggie Centre, at the Royal Marsden Sutton, a haven where we could spend happier moments, even in the company of our dogs, during such a desperate time. 

It is a crucial charity for anyone unlucky enough to be living with cancer and for those grieving, and now, 7 months after Ben's passing, it still provides me with solace and care. 

Please help me to get round and to reach my target for Maggie's and for my Ben.
