We are raising money for the University's cancer research, which is making significant advances in the fight against this disease. <br></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 9pt; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;">Cancer researchers at the University have:</span></p> <p style="margin: 4.3pt 0cm 0pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-size: 9pt; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;">Reduced early diagnosed breast cancer mortality rates by 7%</span><span style="font-size: 9pt; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p style="margin: 4.3pt 0cm 0pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-size: 9pt; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;">Found ways of diagnosing childhood cancers without invasive procedures</span><span style="font-size: 9pt; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p style="margin: 4.3pt 0cm 0pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-size: 9pt; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;">Run a drug trial,&nbsp;which&nbsp;could reduce the risk of bladder cancer recurring by a third</span></p> <p style="margin: 4.3pt 0cm 0pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-size: 9pt; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;"><br></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 9pt; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;">Although I kick box 3/4 times a week that doesn't&nbsp; necessarily mean I can jog a half marathon at all. Running a half marathon requires a differnet type of endurance and training, so please make all the training worthwhile by sponsoring me! I need all the motivation I can get, so sponsor me, any words of wisdom or tips are also helpful.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 9pt; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;">I sprained my ankle Monday 29th August in a kick boxing injury. I have been unable to train and have been resting up. Luckily I think I am on the road to recovery. My ankle is doing a lot better than I thought it would be. I have returned to training being careful not to over do it and limiting myself to certain exercises. With the motivation and help from all my friends I am still going to partake in the half marathon and give it my best shot. If I have to walk a bit and run some I will. So add your support and sponser me, every pound helps and its for a very good cause.<br></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 9pt; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;">Your donations will go directly to the cancer research team at the University.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 9pt; color: black; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;;">Thank you!</span></p> <p>Sarah Lilly</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
