London Marathon Fundraising 2026 Join us in rallying behind two incredible runners from the EOS Network family as they tackle the prestigious London Marathon this year.Our runner Lucy is showcasing their incredible determination and raising awareness and much-needed funds for our community. The London Marathon is a beacon of human endurance and spirit, and this year, it promises to be even more significant. Set in the historical heart of London, the event celebrates strength, community, and solidarity. Our runners will be amongst thousands, each with their own stories but united by a common goal - to cross that finish line. Meet Our Runner Lucy's Story Last year, on a bit of a whim, I entered the London Marathon ballot, never really expecting to get a place. The odds were slim — but I got a place!! With my 50th birthday just four days before the race, I couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate this milestone… There are so many incredible charities doing important work, and choosing just one to support wasn’t easy. I felt drawn to a lesser-known charity after meeting the inspiring woman who runs it. Her children lived with this disease. Through her own journey she has created a support network and charity dedicated to helping other children and adults facing the same challenges. Just like my “lucky” ballot place, maybe this was meant to be… Please consider making a donation to this wonderful charity instead. And if you’re watching on the 26th, please do give me a shout-out! With my 50th birthday just four days before the race, I couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate this milestone… SUPPORT Lucy Other Ways How You Can Support Us Every step our runners take brings us closer to a world where Eosinophilic Diseases are understood, treated, and, hopefully, cured.
