A COUPLE from Bicester will tick off another ambition on their “bucket list” when they finish the London Marathon.
Rejieli Paulo, 35, and Lee Webber, 36, compiled a list of achievements to do before they die and the marathon is one of them.
Ms Paulo, a professional opera signer, said: “We’re really excited.
“It will be really great when we cross it off – we’ll have a bit of a dance and a drink.”
They have already ticked off driving a supercar, but still have dreams of running along the Great Wall of China, sky diving, swimming with dolphins and trekking in Nepal.
The couple will raise money for mental health charity Mind.
Mr Webber, a civil servant, had 12 months off work with severe depression and the charity helped him back on his feet.
Ms Paulo said: “They have been a massive support for Lee and the family.
“They gave us a lot of awareness about depression and how to deal with and understand it.”
