I’m running my first trail marathon in aid of the 7.5 million Ukrainian children who have been placed at risk by Russia’s invasion. During my training for this marathon, I’ve come to realise that I love running, but not as much as I thought I did. Unfortunately this marathon is quite hilly, damn it. As well as the 26.2 miles, there is 2827ft of climbing to contend with 😱🥲🤪😤🤒

I’ve left it late to set up the page as I’ve only just convinced myself to get to the start line. I would be really grateful for any support you can give to the charity, which might help me get to the finish line. 

Ukraine's 7.5 million children and their families are now at risk. Explosions have caused thousands to leave their homes, and over 1 million have fled the country. Families in the region urgently need your help. Please donate to deliver vital support including:- Emergency food and medication- Essential transportation away from conflict- Psychological support- Legal counsel- Phones and data packages100% of funds raised will be transferred to the Alliance of Partnerships for Every Child, a group of grassroots organisations working on the front line with families in Ukraine, as well as refugees in Bulgaria and Moldova.
