My Story
As most people will know I started running in April, completing the Couch to 5k, and now run 6k three times a week. I have decided to set myself the target of running the 2019 Bath Half Marathon and will be combining this with raising money for a something very close to my heart, Cancer Research UK. I lost my Mum 10 years ago to cancer and have lost other friends in recent years. Thankfully my Dad has survived this horrible disease twice and I want to be part of ensuring more people survive. Every time I feel negative I think of all those people who have lost their lives, including my Mum, and it reminds me why I am doing this. Cancer is happening right now, which is why I’m raising money right now 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 and no-one has the pain of losing a loved one!
CAUSE
All Cancer Types
Cancer survival rates have doubled over the past 40 years. Consistent progress is being made but improvements to technology and ground-breaking work offer new opportunities to find different ways to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer and improve survival rates even further. Help Cancer Research UK improve results even faster.
