London Marathon 2025

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. I'm running the London Marathon 2025 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!

Running the London Marathon for Asthma + Lung UK – Every Breath Counts

Friday 24th Jan

On 27 April 2025, I’ll be taking on one of the biggest challenges of my life—the London Marathon. But this isn’t just about running 26.2 miles. I’m doing it for a cause that means the world to me: Asthma + Lung UK.

Why This Matters

Breathing is something many of us take for granted, but for millions of people living with asthma and lung conditions, every breath can be a battle. In the UK alone, 5.4 million people have asthma, and thousands more suffer from lung diseases that can be life-threatening.

For those affected, simple activities—walking up the stairs, playing with their kids, even sleeping—can feel like running a marathon every single day. That’s why I’m running: to raise awareness, funds, and hope for those who struggle to breathe.

My Marathon Journey

Training for a marathon is tough. It’s early mornings, sore legs, and long runs in the wind and rain. But no matter how hard it gets, I remind myself why I’m doing this: for those who fight for every breath.

I’ve seen how asthma and lung conditions impact lives, whether through personal experience, family, or friends. Running this marathon is my way of giving back—to help fund research, provide support, and work towards a future where no one has to suffer from breathlessness.

How You Can Help

I’d love your support on this journey! Whether it’s cheering from the sidelines, sharing my story, or donating—every little bit makes a huge difference.

✅ Donate: Your contribution will fund life-changing research and support services. [Insert fundraising link]
✅ Share: Help spread the word so more people can support Asthma + Lung UK.
✅ Get Involved: Whether it’s fundraising, volunteering, or simply learning more, your support matters.

Every Breath Counts

This marathon is more than just a race for me—it’s a mission. If my steps can help even one person breathe a little easier, then every mile will be worth it.

Thank you for your support—let’s do this together!
