We are the world’s largest charity dedicated to saving lives through research. Our vision is to bring forward the day when all cancers are cured. Cancer Research UK is a registered charity in England and Wales (1089464), Scotland (SC041666), the Isle of Man (1103) and Jersey (247).

Story

On the 16th April 2025 I set off on an attempt to complete 200 marathons in 200 days around the coast of mainland Britain. Aged 65, after a 40 year career in banking, this will require considerable physical and mental effort.

I am looking to raise money for 2 causes; Cancer Research UK and Devon and Exeter Scouts. You have the option as to which cause you decide to support.

You can follow my journey by clicking on to Banker on the Run on Facebook or bankerontherun on Instagram.

In addition If you would like to join me for a day along the way then you are more than welcome. It doesn’t have to be the full 26 miles, whatever distance suits you. All I would ask is you raise funds for this fundraising effort.
