The latest statistics say that 1 in 2 people will develop some form of cancer during their lifetime. I had my own battle with cancer in 2010, so I know how difficult it can be for those affected and their families. That's why I am raising money for this fantastic local cancer charity.

Since recovering from cancer, I have struggled to regain my full fitness. I have entered a couple of running events in that time, but have failed to complete enough training to complete the runs. I am hoping this time that having people sponsoring me will be the motivation I need to see it through!
