Kelly's London Marathon 2021

I'm running the London Marathon for Cancer Research UK, please help me raise as much money as i can ❤❤❤

My Story

In December 2017 we had the devastating news that my mother had breast cancer, after surgery and radiotherapy she was finally given the all clear. When I got my ballot place for the 2019 London Marathon I decided I wanted to raise money for Cancer Research UK, however I sustained a stress fracture whilst training. My place was then defferd to the 2020 London Marathon. After training again for this event I was unable to run it as the Marathon was cancelled due to Covid-19, so my place was deferred to the 2021 London Marathon which is due to take place on the 3rd of October 2021. In June 2021 we found out that my grandmother also had breast cancer, and after having a bilateral mastectomy in August 2021 she is now recovering from the surgery. The care that both my mother and grandmother received during and after their treatment was fantastic and our family are one of the lucky ones as they are both still with us. I have trained for the London Marathon again this year, and knowing why I am running it will get me through each mile. Breast cancer is the commonest cancer in the UK, and although it predominantly affects women it also affects men. Please help me raise as much money as I can for Cancer Research UK.
