My father and I waked in the Shine Night Walk in memory of his mother + two friends who lost their battle with the Big C

My Story

Hi everyone! Post marathon update: My father and I successfully completed the half marathon in under 4 hours! It drizzled initially, but then the rain stopped and all we had to contend with was ocassional gusts of wind. It was beautiful to see some London landmarks lit up in blue and pink (the CR colors). We had decided to enter this walk in memory of my paternal grandmother and close family friends who lost their battle with cancer. We walked alongside those who had similar stories, and even with some cancer survivors. There were participants in wheelchairs and at least one particpant uses a zimmer frame. Wow- for them- it was not a half -marathon but an ultra marathon! Each year Cancer Research UK’s scientists get closer to beating cancer, and they’ve helped double survival rates in the last 40 years. But we can’t stop there. Only with our continued support can they turn this research into breakthroughs that save millions of lives. Every single pound you donate makes a difference to Cancer Research UK’s groundbreaking work. Thank you for your support. Every pound counts.Have a great day knowing you did something good in the fight against cancer.
