Story

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my page. 

I have decided to take on the challenge of running the Reading Half Marathon on 21st March 2010.  This run is 21K or 13.1 miles and I will be running this in memory of my Mother, Isabel Meikle who lost her life to Ovarian Cancer in 1989.

I have chosen to raise money for the charity Ovarian Cancer Action.  They urgently need to raise £10million for a new Ovarian Cancer Action research centre, at Imperial College London – the UK’s first ever research facility entirely dedicated to ovarian cancer.

All donations, no matter how small are greatly appreciated

Many Thanks
Karen

Ovarian cancer is the biggest gynaecological killer in the UK claiming the life of a woman every 2 hours. Many women still do not know the symptoms leading to late diagnosis. We are determined to drive up survival rates by funding world-class research into causes, treatments and prevention.
