We've shed blood, sweat and tears through training all summer. We've suffered through blisters, shin splints, bruises and sprains. We've existed on a diet of (ahem) egg whites and porrage oats. The hard working teachers of Drayton Manor High School are running the Ealing Half Marathon on 30th September!

We are running in aid of Cancer Research, a charity close to everyone's hearts. Most of us have known someone who has been affected by this awful disease. Indeed, we have lost some dearly loved colleagues from Drayton to it.

Please dig deep and sponsor us to help raise money to support the vital work that Cancer Research undertakes. No amount is too small, every penny counts.
