Taylor McLaughlin, Rob Parnell, Murray Wiltshire and Harrison Mednick are running the Royal Parks Half-Marathon to raise money and donate on behalf of Ross Pope.

Losing Ross affected us in our own individual ways but collectively as a group of friends it has bought us closer together. We promised ourselves that we'd continue to honour Ross' memory through achievement and this is just one milestone amongst many we aim to tick off the list.

Ross loved a challenge and was a gifted athlete who often ran long distances and raised funds for Leukaemia care back in 2017 by completing the London Marathon.

Leukaemia care was a charity close to his heart and still remains an active charity his fiancé Amelia is in close contact with ... so it only felt right to continue to raise funds in his memory.

Please help us reach our target in anyway you can!
