Hi All, it’s Rhys here…

In April 2026, I will be taking on the huge challenge of running the London Landmarks Half Marathon for a special cause, Blood Cancer UK.

I have chosen this charity because Blood cancer can affect anyone, it’s not a genetic cancer you pass on. Blood Cancer is caused by changes (mutations) in the DNA within blood cells. This causes the blood cells to start behaving abnormally.

In almost all cases, these changes are linked to things we can’t control, which we know too well, as my father-in-law Joe was diagnosed in 2023 with Waldenstrom, one of the rarest types of Blood Cancer in the world. Approximately 350 new cases are diagnosed annually in the UK, and about 4,000 people living with the condition at any given time.

If you would like to donate, please do!
