My Story
I made the decision early into 2023 that I wanted to complete a half marathon at some point in 2023/24, and when I heard about running the London Landmarks Half Marathon 2024 on behalf of the Mintridge Foundation, I knew this was the perfect motivation
The Mintridge Foundation support young people getting into sport and exercise by promoting active lifestyles, and targeting positive mental health for children and young people by harnessing and utilising the importance of sporting role models and providing direct support with these ambassadors
As an athlete, I can see how sport and exercise can be transformational for children and adults alike. By supporting those involved in active lifestyles, it increases the longevity of their participation and thus improving many areas of their day-to-day lives
This will be a great challenge and I'd appreciate any help possible!
