Raising money for

The Genesis Appeal- Breast Cancer Prevention Charity

Charity Registration No. 1109839

The Genesis Appeal is the only UK charity dedicated entirely to the prevention of breast cancer. Currently one in ten women in the UK will develop breast cancer. The aim of The Genesis Appeal is to create a future without breast cancer, by making 1 in 10, none in 10. Funding is essential to continue our vital research into the prevention and early diagnosis of this terrible disease. Join the fight to make 1 in 10, none in 10, because even one case of breast cancer is too many.

My story

The Mission - To run the Snowdonia Marathon on October 24th 2009 and raise as much money as possible for Genesis Breast Cancer Charity.

Why Genesis? - My wife Jo was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2008 like far too many women in the UK. She had to undergo an operation and various chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatments to treat it. I want to raise money for Genesis as they are dedicated to prevention of breast cancer and have already built a Breast Cancer unit at Wythenshawe hospital. If I can raise money to help Genesis to prevent other women from going through what Jo did, that's got to be a good thing!

Why the Snowdonia Marathon? - It's a challenge, very scenic, a bit hilly (1,900 ft of climb) and I've never run a marathon before. But it will be worth it for this fantastic charity and the work they do. So please support me and Genesis if you can. Thank you very much
