Antony Tyzack

I’m running the London Marathon 2025 to fight for lung health!

Thank you for dropping by my fundraising page! 

Hi, my name is Antony and I am running in memory of my Dad (John), who unfortunately is no longer with us due to lung cancer.

We all have special people in our lives and I was definitely blessed to have him as my Dad. He was the head of the family, the glue that held everybody and everything together, if anybody needed advice he was always the first point of call. A true gentleman and all round nice guy.

Gutted, doesn’t even come close to describing how I feel every day without him in our lives, when he died the family fell to pieces and it we have been through horrendous times without him in our lives.

So why do I want to run the London Marathon?

As a dad of 4 boys, my heart aches for what they miss out on without him in their lives and seeing first hand what a lung condition can do is something I don’t want any person or family to have to suffer with or witness the horrid effects of. If I can help raise awareness and support those in need then it’s a job well done.

Now, I am not your typical runner, I am not a fit gym guy, more Daddy Pig. But I will be putting in serious effort to make myself healthier, fitter and inspire those around me that anything is possible with a positive mind.

Marathon weekend changes London into a friendly, warm and supportive place. With thousands of amazing and inspirational people running for their own reasons and causes raising money to help others. It is humbling to see and I’m sure there will be plenty of tears before the finish line is crossed.

I run because I can, I run for those that wish they could run. Together we make a difference.

I hope you will make a donation so I can smash my target.

Thank you for your support. onwards to London, its only 26.2 miles….
