Running a Marathon with Parkinsons

Thursday 20th Nov
On Sunday April 26th 2026 I will be running the London Marathon 26.2 miles. I've completed 5 marathons previously, with a PB of 3.06 but this will be my hardest Marathon to date by going for a decent time whilst suffering from onset Parkinsons issues. None rotation/swing of left arm and gait leg rotation issues, including balance issues and left hand arm weaknesses. 
Looking forward to the challenge so please sponsor me 🙌

Thank you to my sponsors
