Story

Hello everyone! On April 23rd I will be running the London marathon for Asthma + Lung UK in honour of my Mum, Gill Borg, who sadly passed away of lung cancer in 2021.

Lung disease is the 3rd most common cause of death in the UK, and so often symptoms are ignored because awareness is so low. My Mum lost her battle only 5 weeks after diagnosis, so this is a cause extremely important and effects so many families.

It was a goal of my Mums to run this marathon, so I hope I can make her proud fulfilling one of her dreams.

Please contribute what you can, if you can, and share this post so others can too.

Thank you,

Alex x
