Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Over the next few months I’m running 2.5 marathons in aid of Cancer Research
Cancer impacts on ALL of our lives at one time or another, either indirectly through a loved one or friend and in many cases it can affect us personally.One in three of us will actually suffer from Cancer during our lifetime and its because of this that I have decided to run 2.5 marathons in support of Cancer Research UK.
Cancer Research UK is the world’s leading charity dedicated to beating cancer through research. Virtually all of the money they have to spend on their vital work comes from public donations.They are well on the way to beating cancer, and there is good progress being made. Half of all people diagnosed with cancer today will survive for more than five years – a significant increase compared to just a few decades ago. And ten-year survival rates have doubled since the 70s.
Over the past century, their researchers have made consistent progress in the fight against cancer. From studies of the intricate workings of molecules within cells to the results of large-scale clinical trials of treatments, every result helps to deepen our understanding of cancer, and highlight new ways to prevent, diagnose and treat it.
Here’s my schedule.
10th January - Walt Disney World Marathon – Orlando Florida .....Completed !
28th February – Tunbridge Wells Half Marathon – Kent..................Completed !
25th April – Virgin London Marathon
This is my small way to help us our children and our grandchildren fight this terrible disease.
Would you like to help too?
