Pharmacy student prepares to run her first London Marathon for Mind
Derby Telegraph
|April 22, 2025
A DERBYSHIRE science student whose brother is an Olympic athlete is keeping sport in the family by taking on the London Marathon this weekend.
Emily Williams, a fourth-year pharmaceutical science student on a placement year at chemistry company Lubrizol’s UK Technical Centre in Derbyshire, is raising money for Mind by running the capital's famous marathon on Sunday.
Emily said she hoped to make her family proud, especially brother Ben Williams - a former Olympic triple jumper who competed at the 2020 Games in Tokyo.
“Ben has always been someone I've looked up to pretty much my entire life,’ she said.
“The Olympics has always been his personal goal and seeing him get there and achieve his dream was really emotional.”
Now Emily is proving sport is in her blood by taking on the London Marathon, and proud brother Ben will be cheering her on.
