Dear All
Having run marathons before (Louise - 3, Ollie - 1), we have decided to challenge ourselves to running two marathons in consecutive weekends, being Brighton Marathon on 15 April and London Marathon on 22 April 2012.
The challenge is in aid of raising money for the Pancreatic Cancer Research Fund, which suddenly took the life of Ollie's Dad less than 18 months ago just 10 weeks after first falling ill.
Pancreatic cancer has the lowest survival rate of all cancers – just 3% of those diagnosed survive for five years. It is also the only cancer that has seen no improvement in this figure over the last 40 years.
In 2007, Pancreatic Cancer attracted just 1.6% of all research funding.
We would like to support this charity to ensure that the much needed research continues into this field of the disease.
Any donations are warmly welcomed.
