Individual UK Runs 2026

Why I am fundraising for Parkinson's UK

I'm taking on the Yorkshire Marathon on Sunday 18th October for Parkinson's UK. My mum was diagnosed with Parkinson's three years ago, and although she's managing this condition with her incredible determination and positivity, I would love to raise some extra funds to support a charity that helps so many people affected by this condition.

Thank you for any support you can give!

My updates

Less than two weeks to go!

Final long run was done this weekend…many many miles banked over the last few months, so I need to just trust in the training now and hope for a good run on the day!
