My Story
Like most of us, I've known many people who have been affected by cancer. Some are still with us; some are sadly not. Cancer Research is such a worthy and important cause, yet I never thought I'd ever take part in Race for Life. I'm a real "tenderfoot" when it comes to running (in all meanings of the word), and the thought of taking part in any kind of race is actually quite terrifying to me! However, I have been totally inspired by the immense courage, strength and positivity of my incredible colleague Daryl following his cancer diagnosis in 2016. With this in mind, I am going to feel the fear and do it anyway! Thankfully I’m not alone. I will be running with some fellow tenderfooted friends from work, and we are hoping to raise as much money as possible for this great cause. If you would like to donate, anything you can afford would be gratefully received. Thank you so much in advance.
