The whole NSPCC team are amazing, and it was a pleasure to support a fantastic charity – well done team NSPCC.

It was lovely to know that although I was on my own, I was part of a team. I knew who to ask for help and advice on logistics, fundraising and training.

Everyone has been amazing, giving me the confidence to raise my sponsorship money and actually finish the marathon.
