Story

Sisters are doing it for… Cancer Research UK!

“1 in 2 people will develop some form of Cancer during their lifetime” - NHS. Sadly, our beloved family is no exception to this troublesome statistic. Cancer does not discriminate, as most of us know all too well…

On Sunday 8th September 2024 we will be taking part in the Great North Run in Newcastle:

Isobel - this will be my third half marathon in a decade. I ran the Great North Run in 2014 with my Dad & older brother, and the Edinburgh half in 2017. 10 years on & I’m not feeling so confident. I’ll be heavily relying on the dependable Geordie atmosphere to get me over the line again and I’ll without a doubt be shown up massively by my younger sister, Thea! Good job we aren’t competitive…

Thea - this will be my first half marathon and I’m so excited to be doing it with my big sister for such a worthy cause. It will be a big step up from my Saturday morning Parkrun but I’m looking forward to the challenge. I’m the only member of my family who hasn’t run the Great North Run yet, so I’ve got a legacy to uphold!

Cancer Research UK is a charity that our family has been proudly supporting since we were very young. They do an untold amount of work towards prevention, diagnosis and treatment of Cancer.

We both appreciate any donations you may wish to contribute and thank you for your support.
