There’s more to running than you think. And you’re more of a runner than you think. Let’s move away from what you think ‘fast’ is. Let’s start over. Today. Tomorrow. Every day after. Lace up. Put your keys where ever they need to go. And ask: What’s your #FasterThan?

In the event of death, families give final consent for organ donation, so whether you’ve signed the register or not, it’s very important to talk to your loved ones. #OrganDonationWeek.

Our next one to watch. Ellie Lacey couldn’t wait to get back to running after her transplant. Her passion for running includes organising an international marathon in Uganda. She now can't wait for the WTG, supported by her new baby boy (and mascot) Otto! Good luck Ellie!
