Manchester 5k 2018
Sun 15 Jul 2018
Anyone who knows me will know that I am about as likely to run for fun as I am to run for Prime Minister in the next election. Yet here we are. I may well live to regret this, I may become the next Usain Bolt. Who knows. Cancer is happening right now, which is why I'm taking part in a Race for Life 5k to raise money and save lives. 1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. Every single pound you donate makes a difference to Cancer Research UK’s groundbreaking work, so please sponsor me now. Donating through this page is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with Cancer Research UK.
