Shine London 2018 - Full Marathon

My Story
Ok, Johnnie and I have signed ourselves up to do the 2018 Shine Night Walk. This is 26 miles long - so equivalent to a marathon! I've decided to do this to help battle against leukemia. Over the past 2 years, my Dad has been fighting the disease and to be fair - he has been an absolute trooper! I sadly don't get to see him often as we live nearly 3 hours away from each other but I do like to think I provide support wherever I can. I know that CRUK have been a brilliant support system to him - so why don't I give something back? I'm also lucky enough to work for Cancer Research UK - so the Shine Marathon Walk was an obvious option to take part in.. (i'm planning a few more events in 2019 eeeeeeppp!) This is a massive challenge due to the length of the walk - i would run it.. but i'm not very good at that hahaha. I've managed to rope my wonderful boyfriend, Johnnie into doing this with me. We'd appreciate anything that anyone could give!

CAUSE
Leukaemia
Five-year survival rates for leukaemia have more than tripled in the last 40 years. But despite this progress, around 4,600 people still lose their lives to the disease every year. Almost a third of all cancers diagnosed in children are leukaemia. Your donation can help Cancer Research UK find better treatments and new ways to prevent the disease in adults and children.
