Story

Unfortunately, I lost my father in November 2016. He was the greatest man I have ever met. His fight against Cancer was inspirational, his strength, fantastic and I will forever be so very proud of him.  However, he did not and could not have fought as he did on his own and the staff at Velindre stood with him throughout offering much needed care and support. My family and I remain grateful to all the staff there. 

In his memory, I am planning to run 4 marathons in 4 days on a treadmill. This will be  from Friday, September 15 to Monday, September 18, 2017.

I wanted to do something different and to help raise funds; not only thank Velindre, but more importantly, to ensure their care is available for others who find themselves in the same situation that my family found ourselves in during 2016.

I am looking for not only sponsorship but also for people to join in and run with me, donating and raising money themselves.
