Story
This will be my third half marathon and I'm hoping to run it under 2h. My PB is 2:01! I'll be training with Pan trotting by my side.
I'd really appreciate if you could support Prostate Cancer UK whilst being my accountability partners.
Things I did not know about prostate cancer before I joined Prostate Cancer UK:
1. We don't have a national screening program for prostate cancer alike smear tests, because there isn't a robust and reliable enough way to test all men without picking up lots of false alarms or using invasive or very expensive methods
2. Prostate cancer in its earliest stages usually doesn’t have symptoms, you can speak to your GP even if you have no symptoms and especially so if you are in the higher risk group: over 50, black or with a family history of the disease.
3. Prostate Cancer UK have committed close to £6M this year to research better treatments and tests. They work with the NHS to make sure men get access to the right things, spread the word about who is at risk and support people dealing with prostate cancer through a team of specialist nurses and award winning health information.
Thank you and see you in Hyde Park!
