This will be the 4th time I've taken on the London Marathon in support of the Huntington’s Disease Association. I last ran in 2018 and said then that it would be the final time! It's funny how you forget the pain after a few years and here I am again, with a place in the marathon for 2024!

 It seems like the perfect time to take on the challenge again, as this year marks 30 years since my Dad passed away from Huntington's. We have also lost many other family members over the years. Sadly, my brother is now in the later stages of Huntington's and other family members are battling too. I'll be running for my Dad, for my brother Mark and for all the family members we have lost or continue to be affected by this terrible disease.

Huntington’s disease is a brain disease that is passed down in families from generation to generation. It causes deterioration in a person’s physical, mental, and emotional abilities and currently has no cure.

The Huntington's Disease Association supports anyone who is affected by Huntington's disease across England and Wales. They pursue the best possible care; provide training & advice to families and professionals; raise awareness, and promote research towards better treatment and care.

If you can spare even a small amount to support the HDA, I would be really grateful. 

Thank you
