Click the button above to share your story – we want to hear from every kind of runner!
As marathon season arrives, you may be gearing up for the full 26.2 miles in cities like London, Brighton, or Manchester, or perhaps even beyond.
I’ve put together an initiative ‘Your Marathon’. It’s designed to be a friendly online space dedicated to embracing inclusive sports. It’s a place where you can share your journey, encourage others, and begin challenges of all scales.
You’ve got so much to be proud of, you’re inspiring your friends and family, even if you don’t yet realise it. We want to help you to celebrate your wins – from 26.2 miles to 26.2 steps.
We sometimes overlook our progress, focusing only on what’s ahead. This platform celebrates every achievement, big or small, and supports you in reaching your goals, whatever they may be.
Share your story
You’ve heard of ‘pay it forward’ you can now ‘step it forward’. Pledge to support inclusive sport and show that whatever you’re working on, there’s a whole community of people on your side, supporting you every step of the way.
We’d also love to have inclusive sports groups added to our map. Whatever your challenge, take the pledge today.

Step onto the start-line with confidence
After hundreds of miles in training, when you finally reach the start line, imposter syndrome can take over.
The first step to achieving your goals is to find your tribe of people – all aiming for the same thing. That’s why we’re creating a map of everyone striving to reach their own personal bests.
Frequently Asked Questions
Whether you run miles, metres or are just looking for a little inspiration,we’re here to help.
Why has 'Your Marathon' been created?
Every marathon challenge – however big or small is inspirational – yet they are hardly ever talked about as much as they should be.
Do I have to complete a marathon?
Absolutely not. The whole purpose of ‘Your Marathon’ is that it’s your personal challenges. We all have those challenges which may not be 26.2 miles but they feel considerably bigger than a marathon. This platform is designed to celebrate every kind of personal win.
