26 for '26
26 Events. 2026 Kilometres. A Marathon of a Mission.
In 2026 I’m taking on 26 events to raise funds for Youth Sport Trust —
supporting young people across the UK through the power of sport.
MY STORY
At the age of 23, I started running.
It started with a 5 minute run and has progressed to multiple half marathons, marathons, and even an ultra marathon in the French Alps.From being an overweight, inactive, in the closet young person - I've made changes in adulthood that define who I am and have provided a community, belonging, and a hobby I love. Along with keeping me active.Movement, sports, and activities have had a major impact on my life, from my physical and mental health to my confidence and self-development.That's why I'm fundraising for Youth Sport Trust - to provide young people with the opportunity to improve in their school engagement, resilience, confidence, general wellbeing, and belonging.
