I'm running for The Army Benevolent Fund in the 2025 London Marathon
I've created this page because I want to make a difference. I'm inspired by the work of The Army Benevolent Fund and wanted to support them by raising money as part of my participation in 2025 TCS London Marathon. Please help me help them by giving whatever you can using the 'donate' button. The more people that know about ABF, the greater their impact, so please also spread the word by sharing my page with your friends and family. Thank you in advance for your generosity, it means a lot!

Another Half Marathon in the bag
I completed the Bath 2 Tunnels Half Marathon on Sunday 23rd February, on a wet and windy Sunday. Knocked over 5 minutes off of my time at my last half, which I’m pleased about, but still some work to do over the next couple of months to get myself ready for the full distance.
Putting in the miles.
