Imagine struggling to catch your breath, even when doing simple tasks like walking up stairs or taking a short walk. For people with asthma, this is an all-too-familiar experience. Asthma is a chronic condition that affects the lungs, causing inflammation and narrowing of the airways, which can make breathing difficult. It can be triggered by a variety of factors, including allergens, pollution, exercise, and stress. Living with asthma can be a constant battle, with symptoms ranging from mild to severe and impacting daily life. Despite the challenges, people with asthma continue to persevere, seeking ways to manage their condition and improve their quality of life.

Fortunately, organizations like Asthma UK and the British Lung Foundation are working tirelessly to support people with asthma and other lung conditions. Through research, advocacy, and education, these organizations are striving to improve the lives of those affected by these conditions and find better treatments and ultimately a cure.

To raise funds for Asthma + Lung UK’s vital work, the organization participates in various fundraising events such as the London Landmarks Half Marathon. This exciting event brings together thousands of runners to explore the capital’s iconic landmarks while raising awareness and support for Asthma + Lung UK’s mission.
