Cardiff 10k 2021
I'm taking part in Race for Life to celebrate my mother beating cancer and to raise money for cancer research.
Cancer is happening right now, which is why I'm taking part in a Race for Life 10k to raise money and save lives. 1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. One of these people was my wonderful mother Lucia. She got diagnosed with leukaemia in the autumn of 2020. She was one of the lucky ones and recovered strongly. I am running this race in celebration of her and everything she has been through as well as to raise money for cancer research to hopefully, one day prevent what so many people now go through.
