My Story

Hi and thank you for visiting my page! I am taking on the 2026 TCS London Marathon and with my ballot place will be raising funds to support the Royal British Legion. 

I started running again in May 2025 after not running hardly any distance at all since 2013 when I ran 2 half-marathons. This was all pre-kids but I just felt like I was ready to challenge myself again so I initially booked onto the Torbay Half Marathon as a goal to work towards and train for, but then also applied for a ballot place for the 2026 London Marathon and got in :) I am currently up to running 12 miles so far in my training programme, so I am pretty much there for the half marathon but still a way to go for the full marathon! I should have hopefully linked my Strava so follow along to see how I get on :) 

I have always have a love and affinity to the military due to serving in the Army Reserves for 8 years which is why I have chosen to raise money for the Royal British Legion. They are a brilliant and very worthy charity. Right now they are helping those ex-service men and women who are isolated from family, facing homelessness, struggling to feed their children, and are in financial crisis. The Royal British Legion are working tirelessly to ensure that those who have served are being looked after no matter what challenges they, and the country faces. Your donation will mean they can continue to provide the life-changing support that our Armed Forces community needs and deserves. Thank You.
