London Marathon 2026

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

I’m honoured to be able to run the London marathon again this year in memory of Felix. 

Last year we raised just over £2500 and would love to do the same again.

Every step is for him 💙




Every minute, someone in the UK is diagnosed with a lung condition. I want to make a difference. I'm running the London Marathon 2026 for Asthma + Lung UK, the only UK charity that fights for everyone’s right to breathe. 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!

Tried out the beach run to see if it helped my knee - it did, no pain so the flat is good but beach running isn’t for me… bit boring 🥱 🤣

Morning run 🏃🏻‍♀️

Another half in the bag 🫶🏻

First half marathon for a while

Saturday 7th Feb
Felt a bit ropey at 18k but I won’t let me knee get the better of me 🥴

10 miles ✅

Monday 2nd Feb
Lost a lot of confidence in my running due to injury, but super proud of myself that I was able to do 10 miles on Friday - still feeling the weary legs today after a little 4 miles but onwards and upwards we go 💪🏼

Yes 🙌🏼

Marathon Training

Saturday 3rd Jan
Last night I added to the diary my training logs & my long Friday runs. 
Looking forward to getting these legs moving again. 
I think it’ll definitely be harder this time around as I know how much work there is to do. But I know I can get it done. Raising money in memory of a special little boy 💙
