If you wanna beat the rest
If you wanna be a record break-er
Dedication, that’s what you need…
Lung cancer claims more lives than any other cancer. The Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation is the only charity in the UK wholly dedicated to defeating it.
On 26th April I’m running the London Marathon to raise money for the The Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation. I have never been into running before so this is going to be a HUGE challenge. I can already feel the burn!
The marathon is 26 miles and 385 yards long !! Ouch.
I will need to train 5 days a week for over 4 months to help me complete the marathon in a respectable time (and to keep up with Paula). To help motivate me to train on these cold & dark nights, I would really appreciate if you find a moment to sponsor me. It is a very worthwhile cause and one that touches a lot of peoples lives.
Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer-related death in men and the second most common in women (after breast cancer), is responsible for 1.3 million deaths worldwide annually.
Money raised will help:
· work towards defeating lung cancer through research, campaigning and education
· provide practical and emotional support for patients and all those affected by lung cancer and smoking
· enable children and young people to make informed decisions about smoking and the tobacco industry
THANK YOU!
