Ive recently started my own health and wellness jouney from being unhealthy to now losing weight and getting fitter via a change in nutrition and eating habits along with joining a running club after doing the couch to 5k programme, so with seeing the results that help and guidance from others can do, I thought i would try and raise something for a good cause and give back, so I'm running the Centra Run Together event on Sun 19th Oct at Ormeau Park, Belfast taking on a 5k run.

In Northern Ireland, on average someone receives a cancer diagnosis every hour of every day. One in two of us will receive a cancer diagnosis in our lifetime.

While cancer rates are on the increase, early detection and improved treatments mean that survival rates are improving. Action Cancer services have never been needed more.

In my own family circle their are persons who are dealing with cancer and other family members had sadly passed away due to cancer diagnosis and I even know other friends and work associates who are blighted with various forms of cancer at the moment so its true that most know someone who has been touched by it, so I think this is a good cause, and that even the smallest donation might make that little bit of comfort to help assist those struggling with this terrible illness.

Thank you for your support.
