In just a 3 week period I'm running the Great North Run, the Sheffield ½ marathon and the London Marathon for Cancer Research UK. Together we will beat cancer!
My Story
Cancer has blighted our family over the last 20 years. We've lost 4 members of the family to cancer and 2 family members are currently receiving Cancer treatment. This is a charity that means so much to me and I want to take this opportunity to raise as much money as possible in the hope funds raised will go part way to finding a cure for this evil disease Within the space of 3 weeks I will be taking on the challenge of 2 half marathons and finally the biggest challenge I've ever set myself, the London Marathon Cancer is happening right now, which is why I’m raising money for Cancer Research UK. There’s no time to lose! Donate to my page today and help bring forward the day when all cancers are cured.
