LONDON MARATHON 2026!

Hi everyone,

I'm excited (and a little nervous!) to share with you, that I'll be running the London Marathon in 2026! As a novice runner, this is a HUGE personal challenge - but one I'm taking on with determination and heart.

I'm not just running for the medal - I'm running to raise £2,500 in support of a cause that means a lot to me. As someone living with asthma, this is more than just a physical challenge - it's a deeply personal one. I will be running for Asthma and Lung UK (Team Breathe) a charity that supports vital research, advocacy, and care for those living with lung conditions.

I have grown up managing asthma, and I have seen first-hand how tough life can be when breathing becomes a daily struggle - my Mum is living with COPD, a progressive lung disease that affects her everyday quality of life.

Training for a marathon as a novice runner is daunting - there will be hard runs, early mornings, sore legs, and, lets be honest...plenty of self doubt. But every step I take will be worth the challenge! :)

If you're able to support me - whether that is with a donation, words of encouragement, or just by sharing this page - I would be incredibly grateful. Every pound brings me closer to the finish line, both literally and in reaching my fundraising goal.

I will also be using this platform to keep you all updated on my training, progression, highs and lows!

Thank you for being part of this journey.
