Thanks for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page.

I'm running because I recently lost my friend Lorna to bowel cancer. As I watched her suffer, without complaining, I was struck by how indiscriminate the illness is and how helpless we remain in so many cases. I want to run the half marathon both to honour her extraordinary bravery in the face of the cruellest of illnesses and to support the vital research into the causes and treatment of cancer made possible by the Cancer Research Fund.

While the training is  hard work it is such a fantastic opportunity to raise a lot of money for a great cause and I will be inspired by the incredible courage and dignity shown by Lorna right to the end.
