In these unusual times, I’m running 26.2 miles alone, on the day of the London marathon, in the rain and wind round and round Dulwich Park, a 1 mile loop, to do my bit and raise money for breast cancer prevention so others can avoid the heartbreak that myself and so many others have gone through. 

The charity: 

Predict. Prevent. Protect. You could call it our mantra. As the only UK charity entirely dedicated to the prediction and prevention of breast cancer, we’re committed to freeing the world from the disease altogether. Unlike many cancer charities, we’re focused on preventing, rather than curing. Promoting early diagnosis, screening and lifestyle changes, we believe we can stop the problem before it starts. And being situated at the only breast cancer prevention centre in the UK, we’re right at the front-line in the fight against the disease.
