My Sister, Jess, has been diagnosed with Hodgkin Lymphoma and is currently undergoing an intense course of chemotherapy treatment. It’s highly likely that this is linked to a bad case of glandular fever back in her late teens/early twenties. Cancer Research UK helps with research into the causes and treatment of all cancer. This is the first marathon I’ve ever run and although I’ve done a lot of running, I won’t have ever ran this far so it’s a huge challenge and this run will mean more than any run I’ve done before. I’ll be running this race with my Dad, and hopefully together we can make a small difference in the fight against cancer.
