Gemma Curran

Gemma Curran, aged 50, is a giving advisor from London.

Gemma said: “I am running in the 2026 London Marathon for PACT because I’ve just turned 50 and need to keep fit! More importantly, thanks to PACT, I have three little people living with me who keep me on my toes! PACT is amazing from pre to post adoption we couldn’t have asked for more support. Any way I can find to give back to them we are, as a family, all behind it.”

This will be Gemma’s second London Marathon, her first being 20 years ago. She joked: “This time I will be focused on the atmosphere and preserving my ageing knees and less on my time!”

Gemma is most excited about seeing her children and family cheering her on at the finish line.
