I’m running the London Marathon 2025 to fight for lung health!
Every minute, someone in the UK is diagnosed with a lung condition. I want to make a difference. Assuming the training doesn’t kill me, I'm running the London Marathon 2025 for Asthma + Lung UK, the only UK charity that fights for everyone’s right to breathe.
For those that don't know, I had childhood asthma and suffered a particularly bad spell for about a year when I was 15/16. I've been fortunate enough to have mostly grown out of it since, but it left a lasting impact; long after we had found the right mix and dosage of medication I continued to have panic attacks, such that for a while I couldn't distinguish between the two.
Years later, I still recall the scary lack of understanding of the people I was surrounded by of the danger that can come with a severe asthma attack, with many not realising that they can be deadly.
Another of the conditions that the charity works to combat is mesothelioma. Many of you will know that we lost our lovely aunt, Caroline, to this last year, and how unjust it felt to her and those of us around her. I hope that by raising money for Asthma + Lung UK I can do my bit to help the charity support those suffering.
The work that Asthma + Lung UK does is vital in improving research and treatment, but also crucial in educating and spreading awareness of the risks of asthma and other lung related conditions. Every pound I'm able to raise will take us a step closer to a world where everyone has healthy lungs! I'd be very grateful for any donations you could make!

A motivational poem… Jazz is running, shoes are light, But she’s already questioning life. From Singapore’s heat to London’s breeze, She’s sweating buckets, begging, “Please!” The crowd is cheering, she’s feeling great, Until she spots the free snack plate. “Just a quick bite,” she starts to say, But Buckingham Palace is still miles away! Her legs are sore, her feet are sore, But hey, there’s cake at mile four! Jazz is running, with a grin so wide, Everyone watching is full of pride! Good luck!! X

Looks like you’re in your running era! This’ll be your marathon Debut and I can’t wait to train with my fave Fearless runner gal. Best of luck on the day, hope you aren’t too Red in the face by the end. You’ve got quite the Reputation for blowing hot and cold with these things, so please Speak Now or hold your peace Evermore. No backing out now that I’ve paid good money to watch you suffer. Midnights are for rest now, Folklore is that sleep is the key to success. Feels like we have been putting this off since 1989, but now is our time! Hope you aren’t too Tortured by the end of it! See you at the start line, hopefully we still Love(r) each other at the finish line! Xx
