My Story

Running for Dad

On the 27th April 2014 my dad lost his fight with prostate cancer.  

11 years to the day I will run the london marathon.  I will be running in memory of dad.  Every penny will make a huge difference to the lives of those who either live with cancer or support those loved ones who live with cancer.

Thank you so much for all your support. 

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’.
