Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Later in the year I’m undertaking an Ironman when I’ll be swimming 2.4 miles, cycling 112 miles and then running 26.2 miles!

Most importantly though right now, I’m going to be running London Landmarks half marathon to raise funds for Leap and a few weeks later running the London marathon for Motor Neurone Disease. Over the past couple of years since taking part in triathlons, Rob Burrow and Kevin Sinfield have inspired me through every training session and race I have done. Their attitude to life and the dedication of Kevin to helping his friend is inspirational. Kevin never takes the easy option, and this drives me to go out in every training session and give it my all.

Any donations are welcome and very grateful to support young people at Leap to be inspired to change their attitude in life and to fund the research into finding a cure for MND in the near future. The first link under Team Members is for LEAP and the second link is for MND, equal donations are much appreciated.

With love,

Italia
