Hi, I'm Lisa. I started running last year and, before long, was running 10K in 56minutes! Unfortunately, I was diagnosed with breast cancer the same week I hit that PB.

Since last September, I've had a lumpectomy, chemotherapy, a double mastectomy and reconstruction, and will be having my ovaries removed in June. On September 13th, a year to the day since starting my treatment, I am running the Great North Run on behalf of Breast Cancer Now and I will be crossing that finish line CANCER FREE!

I am asking everyone who donates to suggest a song for my playlist - which I'm sure will get me through some tough miles.

THANK YOU!
