My Story
The Great North Run IS taking place in just under a week and we're signed up to it!! Arrrggghhh Due to the trials and tribulations of the last year, and more so the last few months, the training hasn't gone well but over the last few weeks we have improved from our 5k to 16k (10 mile) distance and tried to incorporate a big hill. As you may know I was diagnosed with cancer in 2012 and survived. After showing symptoms earlier in this year suggesting the cancer may have returned and more recently having samples, tests, ultrasound, camera inspection of my bladder and an MRI scan. RESULTS ARE IN - NO SIGN OF CANCER - PHEW!! Just more issues caused by radiotherapy and another scan in 3 months to check on some fluid. So back to the run, we have decided to fundraise for Stand Up To Cancer. The training has been really hard over the last few weeks and I'm sure the race itself will be very challenging please help by showing us your support and donate to a great cause. Your support will also motivate us to push harder in our training and on the day.
