My Story
Cancer has affected my life in many ways over the years. I have lost some very special people young and old to this cruel disease. I have also with my family been by my Mum’s side while she has faced cancer not once but twice (and survived) and seen first hand how heartbreaking and gruelling the treatment is. The medical treatment, care and compassion from amazing Doctors, nurses and staff made a huge difference to my mum’s journey and as a family we will be forever grateful. I wanted to challenge myself and give back to cancer research so by taking on the 100k in May is the perfect opportunity. About this event: Take part in the 100km challenge and count your K until May! Between now and the end of May we are encouraging brave participants to take steps towards beating cancer by walking/running 100km. Those participants who reach the 100km milestone by the end of May and raise at least £100 will be awarded a special bespoke medal! If you are taking part across the UK, we will post your medal to you. This event is organised by Relay For Life Peterhead. On the day: The challenge is to achieve 100km by the end of May 2021. You can achieve the 100km any way you wish – you might want to walk daily laps around your garden or run 5k per week for the next 20 weeks….the possibilities are endless! Get involved: Sign up to the 100k Challenge is £10. Take part in this great virtual event and make a difference raising vital lifesaving funds.
