I’m running the London Marathon 2027 to raise awareness and advocate for lung health!

Asthma affects upwards of 200 million people worldwide. Studies show that every minute, someone in the UK is diagnosed with a lung condition. I'm running the 2027 TCS London Marathon for Asthma + Lung UK to fight for everyone’s right to breathe!

As someone who has battled asthma since early childhood, I want to raise awareness for those who are impacted by chronic lung conditions every day. There was a time when running a 5k race (let alone a marathon) seemed impossible due to my asthma - I am running this race for anyone whose lungs won't allow them to do so. Every cent I'm able to raise will take us a step closer to a world where everyone can have the breath to run a marathon if they want to!

Just $35 can support a researcher at the start of their career to carry out an hour of lung health research to ensure we attract and keep the best scientific minds to focus on lung disease.

Any and all donation amounts are appreciated in my fight for global lung health! Thank you so much for your donation and support!!
