Brooke's Story

Making a big difference to our small charity, Marfan Trust fundraisers are unstoppable in their support. Today we celebrate Brooke who ran the Brighton Half-Marathon in memory of her uncle Jason (J-Bird). Marfan is a family affair for Brooke …

I got my legs into gear in February, ready for the Brighton Half Marathon.

This time, I ran for the Marfan Trust, in memory of my Uncle Jay / J-Bird / Ladybird but also as my Auntie Leanne is also currently in recovery from a major operation from also having Marfan.

Marfan is something that many are unaware of but something our family knows too much about.

It was an honour to run for this Charity & I was aiming to beat last year's time. This is something that is truly close to my heart so any donations, big or small will be greatly appreciated.
