Lawyer runs marathon and then sails around the world



A commercial lawyer from leading firm Harding Evans Solicitors recently completed the Flora London Marathon and raised over £2000 for charity.

Sian Reynolds started training for the marathon last December and decided to raise money for Kith & Kids, a charity which helps disabled children improve their quality of life by focusing on their abilities.
 


As well as asking family, friends and colleagues from Harding Evans to sponsor her, Sian also organised a Charity Dinner which included a raffle and auction. Over 100 people attended and some of the prizes in the raffle included passes to the St David’s Hotel spa, a signed Neil Jenkins rugby shirt, and a bra from a well known Welsh pop star!!

Sian completed the marathon in under five hours and said “The training was incredible. Although I am not sure whether I would like to do another long training run in snow up to my shins, I am delighted to have raised so much money for Kith & Kids”.

Next year Sian will be taking part in the Clipper Round the World Yacht Race, a high profile sailing competition, which will see her sailing around the world in a year. Sian has won many prestigious national and international sailing competitions and has been selected as one of three people to be the face of the Clipper race and will appear in advertising to promote the race.
