My Story

The countdown is ON... In April 2026 I'll be running the London Marathon in support of WWF! I am CRAZY excited to be a part of this team, and to be fundraising towards something I care about so so much.

As plenty of you will know, I've dabbled in the half marathon distance for a few years now (with varying degrees of success!!) but this will be my first ever full marathon, and I'm really looking forward to the challenge.

I've supported the WWF for as long as I can remember, with many of my childhood birthday gifts arriving in the form of various WWF animal adoption packs! I've adopted Snow Leopards, Gorillas and, most frequently, my favourite animal of all- the Polar Bear!

I've spent the past three years chasing seasonal jobs across Canada and Australia and cramming as much travel time into each off-season as I could afford, and I've been lucky enough to see so many of the animals supported by the WWF in their natural habitats. I'm continually in awe of how incredible our planet's wildlife really is and, for me, it's a cause I couldn't ever run out of love for.

Knowing I'll be running in aid of the WWF will definitely spur me on when I hit some inevitable walls, and I'd be SO grateful to anyone willing to help me towards my fundraising target of £2500. I'm optimistic that by race day I could smash right through this... but I'll need all the help I can get!!
