Race to the Stones 2023 · 8 July 2023 to 9 July 2023 ·
In September I flippantly agreed to take on Race to the Stones with two colleagues, Chris and Craig. Not quite fully comprehending the enormity of the challenge at the time! Since then "in training" I have completed my first marathon in Manchester, and managed to complete my first 50km Ultra Marathon with Chris.
On the 8th July, we will be setting off from Oxfordshire and staggering/shuffling and hopefully occasionally running the 100km to Avebury, Wiltshire. Taking on this immense and frankly intimidating challenge has enabled me to represent a wonderful charity - Make Seconds Count.
Secondary breast cancer is breast cancer which has spread from the breast to other parts of the body. Although secondary breast cancer can be treated, there is no cure. Unlike those living with primary breast cancer, there is no end of treatment, there is no remission. It’s estimated that 35,000 people are currently living with secondary breast cancer in the UK yet only 7% of the National funding for cancer goes towards this incurable disease. Make 2nds Count aim to address this imbalance.
Any support you're able to provide to this worthy cause would be greatly appreciated, and will give us all the extra motivation to get over the finish line!!
