I completed the run on Sunday in 1 hour and 40 minutes, feeling fine until the last two miles up the seafront which was a real battle against the wind and fatigue.

Thanks to everyone who came out to cheer me on, and to everyone who donated!

If you haven't donated, please consider making a small payment to this very worthwhile, underfunded and overlooked charity!

 

In 1998 Ellie's Dad, Robert Taylor died of a brain tumor.

Brain Tumor research receives woefully low funding compared to other cancer research yet it continues to affect 16,000 people each year. Brain tumors are the biggest cancer killer of children and under-40s in the UK. Survival rates are just 12%, compared to 50% for other cancers. Incidence of brain tumors is increasing.

Despite these facts brain tumor research receives less than 1% of national cancer research spending in the UK.
