Chicago Marathon 2025

I'm taking part in the Chicago Marathon 2025 as part of #TeamStroke

I am delighted to be running the Chicago Marathon 2025 for Stroke Association.

Thank you so much for visiting my fundraising page and for helping to support this great charity. 

Catherine xx


I joined #TeamStroke for the Chicago Marathon 2025.

There are over 1.4 million stroke survivors in the UK, with 100,000 strokes happening in the UK each year. That's one stroke every five minutes.

We're here to support people to rebuild their lives after stroke. We believe everyone deserves to live the best life they can after stroke, so we work with the stroke community to make sure people affected by stroke get the very best care and support. We rely on your support to provide vital services, campaign for better stroke care and fund research into preventative and rehabilitative treatments.

Tuesday 5th Aug
Thank you so much to everyone who has supported me so far, I’m delighted to be  half way to my fundraising goal. Thank you so much for supporting this great charity . 
The training is in full swing and the long runs are getting real!
I did parkrun on Saturday with a 13 mile  warm up ! I am really excited for the event and know the training and excessive carb consumption will be worth it in the long run. 
Will keep you updated as the training continues. Cx 

Thank you to my sponsors
