Why do you want to run the London Marathon?

“I want to inspire others who have scoliosis - I have a nearly metal spine following a spinal fusion in 2011. I also have long covid and asthma, I don't let anything stand in my way - with a variety of races under my belt! I'm ready to continue inspiring at this year’s race!”

Cross training really just means incorporating a number of different activities into your exercise routine. By doing this you’ll use a range of movements and load a variety of muscles, bones, joints, and ligaments which in turn will help avoid the repetition or impact injuries associated with a single activity, such as running.
