Running for the back!
Taking part in the 2024 London Marathon to raise money for research.
Raises money to support research in back injuries
Being able to move is natural and something that most people take for granted. The body is an amazing tool and I have always loved to use it to its fullest. Mile after mile I have transported my body around winding paths and roads in a pair of running shoes. It has been my great passion. For many reasons, but above all because I got in touch with myself on a deeper level. For me, long distance running is as much an emotional journey as a physical one.
The life puzzle of work, family and health is not always simple. Running has given me countless benefits. I am energetic, happy, positive and almost never sick. It is fantastic!
At the beginning of 2021, something happened. I could no longer move as usual. The body no longer wanted to function. Having a brain that wants but a body that can no longer do, left a deep mark on me. It was a new experience that changed my life.
After an MRI, it was finally determined that I had something in the spinal canal in my back that shouldn't be there. A tumor.
A new journey had started.
"Everyone knows someone with back problems. 2.5 million people today suffer from Paralysis."
Running Back Again is my fundraiser and my contribution to support research into nerve damage in the back. Money collected goes directly to Spinal Research UK, which conducts research into repairing nerve pathways and thus avoiding paralyzing injuries.

Spinal Research conducts research into nerve damage and is a leader in England in the development of new methods for the treatment of nerve damage in the back.
Without this type of research, I, and many with me, would not be able to walk today. Research is central to the development of new treatment methods.
