My Story

Ok i'll admit I love running, but I never intended to or wanted to run a marathon. Anything that requires months to recover from can't be good for you!

However my wife Louisa felt I hadn't suffered enough when she saw me enjoy running a half marathon last year. So on a whim she entered me into the ballot for the London Marathon and I somehow got a place.  

But now I have this place, I have really enjoyed the challenge of training and realise this is also an opportunity to close out my 10 years as a trustee at inHope by raising as much money as possible for some of the most vulnerable people in Bristol.

inHope is focused on helping people living with:

  • Homelessness
  • Hunger
  • Addiction 
  • Poor Mental Health

We provide drop in cafes, night shelters, life skills and support, foodbanks and community based housing.

Thanks for your support!
