🏃‍♂️ From 1K to 42K: My Journey Continues – Reigate Run 2025
📍 Sunday 21st September – Reigate Priory Park
🎗 Running for The Stripey Stork Charity
💙 Proudly supporting the British Dyslexia Association (BDA)

Taking on the London Marathon changed my life. What started as a personal challenge quickly became a transformative journey — physically, mentally, and emotionally.

Through months of training, I lost over 3 stone and 10 lbs, and watched my limits expand from 1K runs to full 21K sessions. I used a mix of Slimming World, Weight Watchers, and relentless determination to get here — overcoming setbacks, yo-yo dieting, and even injury just 12 days before the big day.

But I didn’t give up. I got back up. I ran 7.5K in the gym and crossed that marathon finish line with pride.

Now, I’m lacing up again — this time for the Reigate Run on 21st September, running for The Stripey Stork Charity, which supports families in crisis with essential supplies and heartfelt care. I want to repeat the impact we made last year — together.

Alongside that, I continue to support the BDA, a cause close to my heart. Working in a specialist dyslexia school, I’ve seen firsthand the daily struggles many students face. The BDA empowers them — and their teachers — with tools, training, and hope.

This run is more than miles. It’s about community, second chances, and belief — in others, and in ourselves.
