Charlotte Rochenard-Taylor, from Warwick, said running became a way for her to cope with grief, after Jamie died from a brain tumour in June last year. She is participating in the Marathon des Sables to raise money for Myton Hospice, which has sites in Coventry, Warwick and Rugby. Ms Rochenard-Taylor said it was "just a way to keep alive, if that makes sense, getting again out of my comfort zone to just feel like fully alive". One of her husband's last wishes was to die at home, stated the runner, who made it her "mission for this to happen". She added: "Thanks to the Myton Hospice, the at-home team... that was made possible." ... "I [found] that running actually became for me a way to cope with the grief, just to get out there and just get the rage out and just... mental wellbeing really." Ms. Rochenard-Taylor, who broke her pelvis a few years ago, said the charity was close to her heart, and the race starting on Tuesday was an ideal way to support it.
