Rebecca Walkley

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. 

As an asthma sufferer myself, this cause is very important to me. I also want to prove to myself I’m not limited by it, whilst fundraising for this amazing cause.

I'd be very grateful for any donations you could make!

My Achievements

My Updates

I did it!

Tuesday 29th Apr
Thank you everyone for your support and kind donations. It really helped me get through what was a very tough and hot race!

Fundraising Target Reached

Tuesday 15th Apr
I still cannot believe I've reached my fundraising goal! Thank you so much for all the support, messages and donations for this amazing charity. It will be such a boost for me on marathon day. 

Reaching my target means so much, and anything raised beyond it is just an amazing bonus that will help the charity do even more incredible work.

Thank you again for being part of my journey - it truly means everything to me, and I can't wait for the big day!

Bib Number 66039!

First Half Marathon!!

A hard one with my chest infection/asthma coupled with the heat but so glad I did it. Thanks to my mum for running with me and coaching me round!

Bake Sale

Thursday 27th Feb
First Bake Sale was a success and raised almost £250! Thank you so much to everyone from the University Orchestra who donated.

February Fundraising

Sunday 2nd Feb
Reminder that for every £5 donated during the whole of February gets you entered into a draw (pun intended!) for a digital drawing of yourself or of whomever you choose, thanks to Chloë! It’ll be in the same style as this drawing of me which is just so cool!

10 Mile Run

Sunday 2nd Feb
Did my longest run of my plan so far, and longest run by myself ever! I love finding new routes and even discovered the Canterbury Courts today. If you want to follow me on Strava then please do!

First ever race!

Thursday 16th Jan
What a start to my marathon plan. Ran a 10 mile race with my mum in Buntingford. It was a tough one and very cold as it was December! Felt amazing and made me so excited for my official marathon plan to start…

Loving my new gym

Wednesday 2nd Oct
Been amping up my training for a 10 mile race in December with some strength training and general fitness at the gym! Loving it lots, especially when I have company 🫶🏼
