We’re Breast Cancer Now, the charity that’s steered by world-class research and powered by life-changing care. We’re here for anyone affected by breast cancer, the whole way through, providing support for today and hope for the future. By 2050, we believe everyone diagnosed with breast cancer will live – and be supported to live well. But we need to act now.

Story

Thanks for visiting my JustGiving page and making a very kind donation.

Breakthrough Breast Cancer is supporting the 126 women who are diagnosed with Breast Cancer - every day.

I have chosen to support this charity because the more people are made aware of the issue the more likely the Cancer can be caught early and appropriate treatment given.

The last time I attempted to do any running was at school - yes quite some time ago - and I have really taken up the challenge!  I am trying to train most days and will be having a practice run with the 10k Race for Life in York on the 27th June - I will update this blog on how I do on the day!

Thanks again for anything you can donate - it is truely appreciated by all of those men and women who are currently or may in the future suffer from this disease.

I promised an update and here it is!  I did manage to do the 10k in 1hour 1minute!  I am currently running 5 days per week and the most I have run non stop is 10 miles - so its looking pretty good for the 'Big Run'.

Every donation makes all the hard work so worthwhile - I have managed to smash my target with everyones help and I am still hard at it!

Thank you all.

Louisa.
