For Allen. My Dad. I’m running the London Marathon 2027 for Team Breathe!

This has been the toughest year of our lives and it's gonna get harder still. Our family and especially my Dad have been through a lot over the last couple of years.

Pulmonary Fibrosis is a killer and it's awful to see it take hold of a man who really respected his lungs all his life and loved the fresh air! 

His disease hammered home that lungs are life, so I'm carrying on my support for the big fight for breath.

I'm determined to make the most of my health and this is a once in a lifetime opportunity for me to represent Team Breathe by running the marathon in my own capital city. 

It's a privilege to be healthy and ask my own lungs to carry me through in London. 

Thankyou for supporting me. It means everything.
