in aid of the Ormond Street Hospital
Children’s Charity.

my daughter Emily
is a patient.

she has a brain tumor.

THIS IS MY TWENTY-SEVENTH LONDON!
IT DOESN’T GET ANY EASIER!

you look GREAT!

thank you!

running saved my life!
I had to learn how to walk and talk
again!

my best friend is a
type 1 diabetic.

I’m racing for a cure
and raising lots of money.

I didn’t see people like me running
when I was younger,
so I’m making space.

to help women who’ve been abused by
domestic violence. stuff like that.

for Princess Alice Hospice —
they took care of
four of my family members.

who are you running for?

myself.

that’s wonderful, one of the best answers I've had all day!
are you proud of yourself?
