Story

We, Lewis and Katherine, are honoured to be running our first Marathon to raise funds for the incredible Make-A-Wish foundation. We're not typically runners, and this will be the toughest thing we've ever done... but we're so honored and inspired to support such a worthy cause. We've started training and are both recording our journey on Strava - feel free to follow along! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your love and support! For more info on Make-A-Wish please see below:

Make-A-Wish UK creates life-changing wishes that revive the childhood that critical illness takes away, bringing light and joy at the darkest of times for a child and their loved ones. But right now, there are 60,000 children in the UK living with a critical condition, and they don't have the resources to be that light for everyone. Your generous support will help them step closer to achieving their vision: to grant a wish to every eligible child. Together, we have the power to light up the darkness.
