Sally goes from Couch to 5K on 14 July
Oxford 5k 2019
Sun 14 Jul 2019 - Sun 14 Jul 2019
My first 5K Race for Life in Oxford in honour of my bother David.
In memory of
David Hughes
Research is essential to find ways to prevent and to treat cancer. Personalised treatments are now available due to earlier research and the causes of cancer continue to be identified. My youngest brother David died from bowel cancer two years ago in March following intense treatment and two major operations. He was 54. His determination to live a normal life through these operations and treatment inspired me to enter this race and keep training. This is my first race and will be the longest I have run in one go! Your donation will support further research which will improve treatment and increase success.
