Lorea’s story
Welcome to my wonderful fundraising page!
I’m running the London Marathon and raising money in aid of Heidi’s Heroes, a local charity based in Cheltenham. This is not the first time that I will be raising funds for this meaningful charity, but it will be my first marathon and what a great opportunity to do it in London for my debut!
I am an active person who has been taking on challenges for a few years, and starting collaborating with Heidi's Heroes in 2017 at the Tewkesbury Half Marathon. I have completed 5 halves and my last challenge was the Cotswolds Ultra in 2021. Since then, I have been more focused on CrossFit, a mixture of conditioning, gymnastics and weightlifting, with shorter and more intense workouts. Occasionally I would run, primarily on the trails to get some fresh air and connection with nature.
Courtesy of my partner, I was entered into the London Marathon ballot as an independent for the first time in 2023, so I guess I just had beginners luck when I was privileged enough to be allocated a place! And what a better platform and occasion to continue supporting Heidi's Heroes in my next venture of running 26.2 miles on the roads of London!
Thank you for reading up to here, I will be posting regular updates so stay tuned! And if you decide to donate, please receive my warmest thank you!
