My Story

I started my running journey at the start of 2023 and signed up to the London Marathon 2024 on a whim thinking I'd never get through, however, here we are! Never did I think I'd be a runner and enjoy it, but training commences! 

I am going to be raising money for Many Tears Animal Rescue who do incredible work for all of the dogs they rescue. We rescued Niamh from there back in August 2022. We couldn't have had a better experience and communication from the whole process. I would love to raise money so they can keep saving dogs and putting them into loving homes, just like Niamh has/is. 

Many Tears Rescue is a small rescue centre based in Wales. They rehome approx 3000 dogs per year, as well as cats and other animals. They take in mainly ex breeding dogs but also dogs from the pounds, public hand-ins and a small number from rescues abroad when we can. Many Tears Rescue also runs community programmes, volunteer groups, friendship clubs and hosts educational courses for different groups. It is such a happy place, full of positive energy and where the staff and volunteers work tirelessly to help the animals in their care. All animals that come to the rescue are assessed, health checked, neutered, microchipped and vaccinated before being carefully adopted to their forever homes. Many of the animals arrive with health problems that need to be addressed and so the vet bills, along with the utility bills to heat the kennels and keep the place running are vast.

The London Marathon has become an annual, inspiring and colourful fixture in the world’s sporting calendar since the inaugural race on 29 March 1981: a celebration of fun, fundraising and fancy dress.

Over the years more than a million people have completed the 26.2-mile course – which runs from Blackheath to The Mall, with a spectacular finish in front of Buckingham Palace, showcasing the very best that the capital city has to offer.

What’s more, these participants have raised over a billion pounds for charity and there have been countless amazing tales of human achievement throughout the event’s history – living up to its aim of helping participants ‘to have fun, and provide some happiness and sense of achievement in a troubled world’.
