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.

My sister, Cecile, and lovely boyfriend, Joe, both have asthma. I have seen first hand how difficult it makes breathing for them, something I tend to take for granted every day. Also, my grandmother passed away due to Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis and raising money for this charity will help others not experience what she went through. I would really appreciate any donation to this cause! 

I am incredibly excited to run the London 2025 marathon for team breathe (although equally just as nervous!) and if you want to come out and support on race day, don't hesitate to reach out!

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!

Getting started!

Saturday 1st Jun
As of April 27th, I have been working on my endurance and weekly mileage to comfortably run the marathon with a fantastic time. I have been to many a park run with my best friends, weekly long runs with Kirstie (who is also running and we intend to run together as much as we can!), running with the swans in the river Wensum, and meeting many many dogs :)
