Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page for the fundraising I'm doing for The Institute of Cancer Research (ICR). Last year cancer affected the lives of both my wonderful parents and that experience affected them seriously and profoundly. Thanks to the fantastic NHS staff who cared and treated them in hospital, and all the research carried by the ICR, they are able to continue to live full and healthy lives. In recognition of this amazing work, this October I'm running the Royal Parks Half Marathon in London to raise funds for the important work of the ICR.

I've been running seriously for over a year now and after I recovered from a serious knee injury late last year, I've been more determined than ever to go further and faster. I've been running up to half marathon distance for a while now, so my target for the Royal Parks Half Marathon are to finish the race in under 2 hours and 16 minutes (my current half marathon time - see picture from 18/06/2023) and raise £500 while doing it. Your support and generosity is greatly appreciated.
