London Marathon, Take 2
After getting injured halfway through training for last years' London Marathon and having 10 months off running, we're now only a few weeks away from the 2026 London Marathon, which will be my first marathon, in aid of London's Air Ambulance.
Many people don’t realise that the LAA is a charity, relying totally on donations from people like yourself. If you live, work or have ever been inside the boundaries of the M25, London's Air Ambulance has been there to keep you safe. The work they do brings hospital care to the streets of London, administering life-saving care when the journey to a hospital would have been too long.
My family and I have fundraised for the LAA before, with my Mum and I running our first half marathon to raise money having started couch to 5k only a few months before. This’ll be the double the length of the longest race I’ve done, and my first time running a race without someone next to me the whole way! My first runs back from injury were also the first runs of this training block in December, so it's been an incredibly steep curve and running the marathon has felt impossible most of the last year.
Please consider donating - it takes an incredible amount of money to keep these helicopters running, and it’s a service that no one thinks they or their loved ones will need until they do. It’s vitally important that the LAA is there to deliver life-saving care on the very worst day of someone’s life.
