Event: Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon 2024, on 12 May 2024
The past year has been difficult for many, so were aiming to reach as many people experiencing loss as possible. We want to take away some of the tough things that come with losing a loved one, so that families can focus on the most important - love.

Story

On May 12th 2024 I will be running my first ever marathon. I will be running for Wheatfields Hospice in Headingley Leeds (Sue Ryder), who were amazing when they provided palliative care for my Dad (Dave) in his final days. I have always thought one day i would sign up and do a marathon after watching the London marathon on TV. I was inspired by the Rob Burrow Marathon in 2023 and signed up just before the start of that race. I ran the Leeds Half in 2019 and have run a number 10K's.
