Asics London 10K · 9 July 2023 ·
I am running the Asics 10K to raise vital funds for Endometriosis UK!
Having been blessed to be friends with so many wonderful women, some of whom also happen to have endometriosis (love you Crooks & April!!!), this Endo Awareness Month (March) I wanted to raise money for the 1 in 10 women and those who were assigned female at birth who have endometriosis.
Endometriosis is the name given to the condition where cells similar to the ones in the lining of the womb (uterus) are found elsewhere in the body. It is a chronic and often debilitating condition that can cause painful periods, painful sex and pelvic pain outside of periods. It may also lead to infertility, fatigue and bowel and bladder problems.
The impact can be felt for life and there is no cure. It takes an average of 8 years to get a diagnosis of endometriosis in the UK, that's too long!
Your donations will mean that Endometriosis UK can continue to support those affected by Endometriosis through national support groups, information provision and their helpline as well as continue to campaign for change, fairer treatment and eventually a cure.
