Story

* UPDATE* I have visited a physio and have got a stress fracture in my shin. This can take a while to heel and I will have to delay the run. Currently I can not run on it. I will keep people updated when I start training again!!

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have been encouraged to take up a challenge for charity by my work Cremarc. I have never done a run and have completely started from the beginning. I turned to the Couch to 5k as I had heard great things about it. I shall be doing a park run on the 14th September.

When I knew I was taking up this challenge I knew I wanted to do it in memory of my dad. I lost my dad to pancreatic cancer at the age of 50 in 2016. 95% of people with pancreatic cancer will die unfortunately because it’s often caught too late and you can have very minimal symptoms to start with. I want to raise money for this great charity so they can try to improve the outlook on this terrible cancer.

Please donate generously and believe me this is a massive challenge I’m undertaking and want to do all I can to achieve it!

It’s unacceptable that more than half of people diagnosed with the deadliest common cancer die within three months. That’s why they need and deserve more. More research, more funding, more breakthroughs. More than hope. Together we’ll make that possible.
