I'm running the London Marathon for Cancer Research UK to beat cancer sooner and in honour of Stella. A lovely, brave lady. Rest in peace 19/12/18
In memory of
Stella
7th Feb 1941 - 19th Dec 2018
My Story
Lee signed up for the challenge of the London Marathon having taken up running last year. He regularly completes the Coventry parkrun on a Saturday morning with his wife, Carole. Throughout the past year, Lee has challenged himself with competitive 5k, 10k and half marathons, but is yet to take on the challenge of 26.2 miles! In December 2018, Lee's mother-in-law, Stella, unexpectedly passed away. In 2013, Stella suffered from cancer of the appendix, and it seems fitting that Lee runs the London Marathon in her memory whilst trying to raise as much money as possible for a good cause. Would be grateful for any donations and encouragement we can supply to Lee to get him around the course in memory of Stella.
