Through Brakes and Lucozade we have both been fortunate enough to have the opportunity to run in the London Marathon this year.

We have therefore decided that whilst on this journey we would want to try and raise some money for Brakes' chosen charity Meals & More.

Meals & More helps reduce and eradicate 'Holiday Hunger' by supporting holiday provision in communities across the UK. A third of children in the UK currently live in poverty and while they may have access to free school meals during term time, they are not guaranteed a nutritious meal during school holidays. Meals & More funds holiday clubs across the UK that provide both healthy meals and enriching activities that help children nurture and develop their interests.

At the time of posting we are just over 5 weeks out from the 2022 London Marathon. We are now well over the half way mark in our training plans and so far we are going well, with our longest runs currently at 14 and 17 miles. We have recently signed up for the The London Big Half Marathon on Sunday 4th September 2022 as part of our preparations and build up to the full Marathon on October 2nd.
