Emily Marchant , The Run of my Life!

  On Sunday 21st April 2024 65,725 people toed the start line of one of the most iconic races in the world, the TCS London Marathon. Out of this runners 28,276 of those runners were women , which in itself is absolutely phenomenal.

If you dont know Emily, she is one of the most dedicated and ambitious athletes you will meet. And if shes not lecturing or writing research papers in her day job, she is probably out on the Gower trails and roads, training! She is pretty good triathlete , with a number of incredible accolades to her name (3rd overall Ironman Wales 2023 and winner of age group).

We’ve always been such a close family and it hit us hard, none more so however than my Father who lost both of his parents within the space of a few weeks and had to or
