Two weekends to go!
My LAA t-shirt has arrived, the sun is finally out, and there are just two weekends to go.
We’re already over halfway to our fundraising target—thank you so much to everyone who has supported so far. Your generosity genuinely makes a difference, and it’s hugely appreciated.
If you’ve been thinking about donating, now’s the perfect time to help us push over the line.
It's chilly!
Where has all the time gone!? After a blisteringly few cold months training over winter we've been blessed with a few weeks of almost constant rain. It would be an understatement to say this has put a dent in my training BUT with only 65 days until the London Marathon it's time to pick up the training!Less than six months to go!
Keep track of my training!
Today marks 222 days until the 2026 London Marathon.I'm running to help save lives in London
Hello, I’m Dan, I'm a doctor working in an Emergency Department in South London.
Through my work, I see first-hand the incredible impact of London’s Air Ambulance. They respond across the city by air and road to treat and transport London’s most seriously injured patients. Their interventions save lives, giving people the best chance of survival and recovery after trauma.
If it wasn't for London's Air Ambulance, many of the most badly injured patients we treat in the emergency department simply would not reach hospital alive.
But they do much more than that. London’s Air Ambulance also drives research into pre-hospital care, supports families of critically injured patients, and provides vital education for communities and healthcare professionals.
This lifesaving service relies on charitable donations. It costs around £17 million a year to run, and about £2,600 for every patient treated.
In 2026, I’ll be running the TCS London Marathon to raise funds for this vital charity.
Please give what you can to help save lives in London.
Thank you!
