My Story

Hi, I’m Talya.

I’m a neuromusculoskeletal and women’s health physiotherapist, a runner, and a mum — roles that deeply shape who I am and why this marathon matters so much to me.

In my work as a physio, I support people across all stages of life — from women during pregnancy and postpartum, to anyone living with pain, recovering from injury, or returning to sport. I work with musculoskeletal pain, rehabilitation, and sports injuries, with a strong belief in movement, education, and empowering people to trust their bodies again.

I’m also a mum to my beautiful children, who constantly remind me what truly matters and fuel my passion for giving back. Being a parent has strengthened my desire to support families and children who need extra care and resources to thrive.

Movement is at the core of my life. Running is my therapy, my reset, and my reminder of how resilient the human body can be when it’s respected and supported. Training for the London Marathon is a personal challenge, but also a celebration of movement, strength, and perseverance.

I’m running the London Marathon 2026 in support of The Malki Foundation UK, which provides life-changing therapies and support to children with severe disabilities, helping families care for their children at home with dignity and hope.

Thank you for supporting my run and this incredible cause. Every donation means more access to care, more support for families, and more steps taken together — I’ll be carrying your generosity with me all the way to the finish line.

About us

The London Marathon has become an annual, inspiring and colourful fixture in the world’s sporting calendar since the inaugural race on 29 March 1981: a celebration of fun, fundraising and fancy dress.

Over the years more than a million people have completed the 26.2-mile course – which runs from Blackheath to The Mall, with a spectacular finish in front of Buckingham Palace, showcasing the very best that the capital city has to offer.

What’s more, these participants have raised over a billion pounds for charity and there have been countless amazing tales of human achievement throughout the event’s history – living up to its aim of helping participants ‘to have fun, and provide some happiness and sense of achievement in a troubled world’.
