I came to the Stragglers for the first time in September 2008 and became a member early 2009. Since September 2015 I have been the editor of Stragmag and also add occasional updates to the club's social media channels. I've run 8 marathons including London with a Stragglers place, Snowdonia, Berlin, Brighton and Loch Ness.

I work as a fundraiser for the music/disability charity Attitude is Everything and once wrote a book about the route of the London Marathon. In a previous running life I represented England at the 2002 Commonwealth Games in a disability sport (visually impaired) 100 metres.
