This is Katie's 2nd marathon running on behalf of Carers UK, and we are delighted to have her back running but this time with her younger brother. Together they hope to raise £3,000.

Read below what prompted Pete on to run the marathon on behalf of carers
"The reason I want to raise as much money for Carers UK is that through being a teacher I get to see the effect when a member of the family needs full time care. It can have a huge effect on children as well as adults. Every child has the right to be a child and be able to focus on their education.
I fully support the work of Carers UK which offers vital support to carers and their families".
