My Story
This September I’m running 70 miles in memory of my mum, Diane. She would have been (should have been) 70 on the 23rd September but 3 years ago she died from a very rare and aggressive form of melanoma. During her own battle she raised money for Cancer Research UK and when she was dying I made a promise to her to do the same. Please help me keep this promise by sponsoring me a little: your support will mean the world to me. This is the biggest amount of miles I will have covered before and a big challenge for me. I will be running through the pain, quite literally, but thinking of my irreplaceable and inspirational Mama with every single step. Imagine a cancer free, cancer curable future for our children. That’s got to be worth sacrificing a little time and money for. Love and thanks, Katie ♥️
