In the UK: Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men. 35,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer every year. One man dies every hour of prostate cancer. The Prostate Cancer Charity is the UK’s leading charity working with people affected by prostate cancer. We fund research, provide support and information, and we campaign to improve the lives of men with prostate cancer. We provide the only UK-wide prostate cancer Helpline staffed by prostate cancer specialist nurses. Our nurses offer free and confidential information and support to anyone affected by prostate cancer. The Prostate Cancer Charity is working towards a world where lives are no longer limited by prostate cancer. The Charity is fighting prostate cancer on every front - through research, support, information and campaigning.

My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

We are running in aid of The Prostate Cancer Charity in memory of Pete's father and Mark's grandfather who both sadly passed away having suffered with the disease.

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in the UK and the charity's mission is to fight prostate cancer on every front – through research, support, information and campaigning.

Please help us make a real difference to somebody's life. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So please dig deep and donate now.

UPDATE:

Two down and one to go!! We have now completed the Bristol Half (Sep '09) and the New York Marathon (Nov '09) and are now up for the Bath Half in March 2010.

We finished the first leg (Bristol Half) in 1hr 49mins

New York was amazing "totally awesome" as the locals would say. Mark finished in 3hr 55mins and Pete (having set a new world record for stopping to go to the toilet in all 5 boroughs of New York on the same day) came home in 4hr 19mins. Many thanks to our families who were there to cheer us on.
