Why running? “It’s always been a goal of mine to run the London Marathon and it was something I wanted to do before my 40th birthday. As that’s in May this year, I was running out of time a bit! I’ll be running the marathon in memory of my dad who died seven years ago. He was there when I ran my first half marathon and I’ll be sad that he can’t be there to see me run my first marathon. I’m running for Help The Hospices – the leading charity supporting hospice care throughout the UK. The support I’ve had from my friends and family has kept me going, as well as knowing the money I raise will make a real difference.”
