Thank you so much for supporting us as we take on the 2026 Great West Run 10k for FORCE Cancer Charity.

Both Chris and I recently lost our mums to cancer. During the most painful time of our lives, FORCE was there for us — offering compassion, guidance, and answers when we needed them most. We truly don’t know how we would have coped without their support.

In the midst of our grief, we both found comfort in running. It became a way to clear our minds, process our emotions, and keep moving forward during the hardest time of our lives. By taking part in this run, we want to honour our mums, raise awareness about cancer, and highlight the vital support that exists for families facing this devastating journey.

This is our way of saying thank you — for being there when we felt lost, and for standing beside us when everything felt overwhelming.

Chris will be running in full army gear, carrying a weighted daysack, with me alongside him so we can support each other every step of the way — just as we’ve had support along ours.

We’ve started training and are giving everything we have to prepare for this challenge. Any support or donation, no matter how small, means more than we can put into words. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for helping us give something back. ❤️
