TCS London Marathon 2025

Helipad Visit No2

With 2 weeks on the countdown clock, a callback to see the Helicopter at HQ felt really rewarding given the journey so far! Looking down on the streets & landmarks of the course soon to stomping around on the 28th made it all the more poignant. 
Good to catchup with a few more of the LAA Marathon team as well!

Brentwood Half Marathon

 

The Grizzly 2025

A 20-mile 'Sunday Long run' with a twist...

Footie Fundraiser

Managed to pull together 20 fine gentlemen for a Friday Night game at Coram's Fields last week

Despite some sore legs and reducing my long run distance somewhat the following Sunday, it was an all round success. The collective funds raised totalled £400! (not including GiftAid)

Thanks again to the lads that got involved and Kendra Energy Solutions for sponsoring!

HQ Visit at Royal London Hospital

Visiting the Helipad and team at RLH, an experience that really affirmed my commitment to this cause and will stick with me throughout this Marathon and beyond.

The Marathon journey begins

Many unsuccessful ballots and consolation track tops later… I am running the 2025 London Marathon for London’s Air Ambulance Charity!

As a proud Londoner, it is a real honour to be representing this great institution on such an occasion as the London Marathon. I fully appreciate the importance of this service to our City and its people, so will be doing my utmost to raise the vital funds it needs to do so.

In order to serve the 10 million people that live, work and travel within the M25, the running costs for the LAA stand at £17 million annually. Relying on public funding to meet this vast sum really highlights the criticality of its donors and fundraising efforts such as this to make up this total.

Quite fortunately, I do not have a deeply personal story of my own to share on the service but am all too aware of the countless others it has proved invaluable and more often than not, lifesaving.

Please donate to support the service that has looked after London and its people when it really matters most and will continue to do so with your support!

Thanks for taking the time & stay tuned,

Oli
