Kev's fundraiser for Pancreatic Cancer UK

London Marathon 2026 · 26 April 2026 ·

It’s unacceptable that more than half of people diagnosed with the deadliest common cancer die within three months. That’s why they need and deserve more. More research, more funding, more breakthroughs. More than hope. Together we’ll make that possible.

Story

In 2010, I lost my beloved Dad (Peter) to Pancreatic Cancer. I vowed that I would one day run the London Marathon in his memory and I have finally been given the opportunity at the age of 55. My run has added poignancy and focus, as my sister in law Sue is also bravely battling this awful cancer.

Thanks to the work of Pancreatic Cancer UK's dedicated team of researchers, a simple test to detect the cancer earlier is within reach. It just needs more funding.

My training is progressing (in all weather) and I can't wait to tackle this challenge and see the finish line on 26th April 2026.

I would be so grateful for your support and donation, giving me the encouragement I need to complete this marathon - for Dad and Sue.

Thank you

Kev
