Eva O’Connor

London Marathon 2026

I’m running the London Marathon 2026 to fight for lung health!

Every minute, someone in the UK is diagnosed with a lung condition.

On 8th March 2025 my wonderful Dad passed away due to one of these conditions- Pulmonary Fibrosis. There is yet no real treatment or cure.  Dad also had another condition called Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia which made it progressively more difficult for him to walk. I want to honour him by using my own lungs and legs, to push myself through the gruelling challenge of training for and running this marathon. 

 I'm running the London Marathon 2026 for Asthma + Lung UK. 

Every pound I'm able to raise will take us a step closer to a world where everyone has healthy lungs.

Just £22 allows one of Asthma + Lung UK's nurses to answer a call on the Helpline, offering potentially lifesaving advice. I'd be very grateful for any donations you could make!
