In 2025 it will be 20 years since my brother, Lewis, sadly passed so to acknowledge this unimaginable milestone I’ve signed up to run the London marathon in support of MDUK.

Whilst the 26 miles will be a considerable mental and physical challenge, it feels insignificant compared to the challenges faced by my brother and others who live with this life changing diagnosis. I have always been incredibly inspired by the courage and bravery Lewis had to not let his diagnosis change his outlook on the world despite the daily challenges he faced and I know that if I can have just an ounce of that mindset on the day then it’ll be a walk in the park.

Any donations you could make would go a long way to help fund research and provide life changing support to the thousands of people diagnosed with muscle wasting conditions.
