Earlier this year my nephew, Felix, was lost to SUDEP, sudden unexpected death in epilepsy. Felix was 20 years old when he died and was full of enthusiasm for life, especially the theatre which he loved. It was a terrible shock to all of us to suddenly lose him, and this loss has left a huge hole in our family. I wanted to do something positive to raise awareness and funds for SUDEP Action, the charity who support families through this terrible loss, provide somewhere for people to turn in grief, and fund research into SUDEP. 

I started running a few years ago to try and get fitter. I've managed a few  10km events but never gone as far as a half marathon. This will be a big challenge for me, but knowing how important this cause is will (I hope) help me get there.
