<div>It's been just over 2 years now since we lost Dad. He fought a long battle with Amyloidosis - a rare cancer that caused proteins to build up and reduce his heart function.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Since his passing, I've found comfort in friends, family, and particularly our new son George. But running is where I've found the most solace.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>When I run, I'm alone, often listening to a dance or rock playlist on Spotify - but mostly just inside my own head. I use that time to reset, recharge, and talk to Dad. I ask for advice, share what George has been doing, and tell him how much we miss him.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>So it seemed fitting that through some good fortune, I secured a placed in the 2026 New York Marathon. I'm not running for a target time, I'm running to enjoy the journey, savor the experience, and mostly, talk to Dad.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In his honor, I'll be raising money for Stand Up to Cancer, a great cause both in the US and UK to help fund research and support impacted families.
