Story

After a previous encounter with the big 26.2 back in 2015,
I vowed ‘absolutely never again’ to any long distance running. But then, I was offered a charity place to run for a particularly special cause, the J’s Hospice... How could I say no?

And so, on 22nd April 2018, alongside Poppy, one of my very best friends, I’m tackling the Virgin London Marathon in memory of her brother Alex who was supported by the wonderful work that the J's do. 

Knowing that I will be helping the J's to continue supporting more young adults and their families will really keep me going over the next few months of gruelling training, as will knowing that I have the support of my lovely friends and family. I’ll even be cutting back on my beloved red wine throughout my training...!

Thanks for reading and for your support. Every little helps and adds up to make a huge difference.
