So, i'm going to run a Marathon in September ( well slightly more in truth), sounds straight forwards! However me being me it is going to be a marathon with a difference. I plan to run the Marathon over a 24 hour period, running one 1.2 mile loop

on the hour every hour around Highfields lake. The plan is to start at midnight on Thursday 26th September then every hour on the hour run a lap. - why not sponsor me to run a lap, or maybe come join me for a lap.

So why i am doing this?

10,000 women around the world die from breast cancer every week. Our dedicated researchers are working to help save and transform women's lives across the globe - and you can help them! Each week a different member of staff or a student from the University of Nottingham will take part in a run in the UK or abroad wearing our special VEST ON A QUEST! As well as raising awareness of the vital work being carried out at the Nottingham Breast Cancer Research Centre, our brilliant Vest Questers will also be raising money to help support our world-leading research team, and you can help them! By making a donation you will be helping our researchers to:- Develop a blood test to detect breast cancer earlier- Stop breast cancer spreading around the body- Develop effective targeted treatments. We are focused on reaching extraordinary goals. Support our work and you could be part of the next breast cancer breakthrough.
