Our Half Marathon Challenge 🏃♀️🏃♂️
I’m taking part in the London Landmarks Half Marathon 2026 to raise funds and awareness in aid of Target Ovarian Cancer, the UK's leading ovarian cancer charity.
They target what’s important to stop ovarian cancer devastating lives – that means symptoms awareness, life-saving early diagnosis, better treatments and support for everyone affected by ovarian cancer.
And this time, I’m not running alone! I’ve managed to rope Kane into the challenge too (he found out after I signed him up 😅). Together we’ll be taking on three half marathons — one solo, one in New York this December, and the big one in London next April.
Please support our fundraising, and together we’ll help transform the future for everyone diagnosed with ovarian cancer. 💜
My Updates
89 days to go
Tuesday 13th JanA quick update on the challenge…
I’m now two half marathons down 💪 and officially on the countdown to the final one — the London Landmarks Half Marathon, which is just 89 days away!
Training is still very much ongoing and you'd think i'd be a pro runner by now, but I am not! Kane is faster than me but very gallantly continues to run at my pace so I am not alone!
Thank you so much to everyone who has donated, shared, and cheered me on so far — your support genuinely means the world. If you haven’t yet and are able to, I’d love your support as I head into the final stretch.
One last half marathon to go… bring on London! 💜

I’ve somehow signed us up for three half marathons…
Thursday 9th OctSo, in a moment of madness (or motivation (I’m still deciding which), I’ve signed myself up for three half marathons. One on my own, one in New York this December, and the last one the London Landmarks Half Marathon in April 2026. I've also roped poor Kane in!
We are running to raise money for Target Ovarian Cancer, an amazing charity that works to improve early diagnosis, fund vital research, and support everyone affected by ovarian cancer.
We'd love to ask if you might consider sponsoring our fundraising efforts as any amount would make a huge difference (and possibly help us forget the fact we’ve volunteered for 39.3 miles of running!).

You’ve got this Laura! Proud of you mate. I know how hard it is to stick with the training but you’re absolutely smashing it. Keep it up and you never know, maybe one day you’ll beat Louis at a park run 😆 xx
