In memory of

Grandad Williams

My Story

Having lost our grandad to cancer we want to raise as much money as possible to fight this disease and help others affected. As some of you may know Faye had a positive HLA-B27 test and was told she has ankylosing spondylitis. Being told she wouldn't be able to run anymore (and being the stubborn person she is) she decided to train for the 10k slowly and gradually to allow her back time to adjust. To be running again is such an achievement anyway, but having always wanted to do a marathon and knowing that is (for now) out of reach the 10k on the same day seemed like a good way to get into the atmosphere of race day without causing too much pain (hopefully)! Yasmin however, basically.. stole Gary's Worthing half marathon medal and wore it around the pub all night telling people she ran it in 1h 42m. After spending the night being ridiculed for wearing a medal she didn't earn, she drunkenly signed up to do the Brighton 10k with Faye and Gary to get her own medal.. that she actually earnt :) All joking aside, cancer SUCKS so lets kick its ass!
