You are sponsoring: one 25 year old girl* to run the Cancer Research UK 5k** Race For Life in Northampton.

I'm going to run/jog/walk/somehow move myself around a park to raise some money. Hooray!

Why? Because in summer 2010 I had my bowel removed due to cancer. Which was pretty sh**ty (err, pun not intended). Cancer is a terrifying thing to have happen to you, and the sooner we do away with it, the better. I reckon it would be amazing if a cure was discovered in our lifetime, and if eventually all cancer was easily treatable. If you think that would be amazing too, you should sponsor me!

*Some original parts missing. **I was going to do the 10k but I didn't have the guts.
