My Story

Hey I'm Izzy and I love sports. Growing up with boys I was always active, trying most things from tennis to swimming and even dance. But when I was 10 I started playing football. I fell in love right away with not just the game but the feeling of being apart of a team. I started going to watch my local mens team with my Dad and we soon also began going to women's games. Now I am lucky enough to get to work in Women's football. When I left college to start full time work in London I stopped playing football. I then turned to running after doing some athletics in school. I didn't make it into the London marthon so I ran Barcelona in March 2025. 

After loving Barcelona Marathon my desire to run London only grew. Now I have got that oppotunity and what better charity for me to run for than Women In Sport. Sports has brought me so much in my life and massivly improved both my mental and physical health. 

By running for and supporting Women In Sport I get to help girls and Women receive opportunites to find and develop their love for sports. 

Even the smallest donations can massively help women to find their communities and opportunities for sports leading them to chasing dreams they never thought could be possible. 

Thank you for your donations, Izzy 💜✨
