Story

I am running the MCR Marathon for The Christie because they have supported (and continue to support) Mum through her Cancer journey. 

Mum has always been a formidable woman, but her strength since being diagnosed in October 2022 has been incredible. Mum’s courage has motivated me to run my first marathon (yikes) and for such an amazing cause! 

I’m proud to be running for The Christie, as it is a hub of research and development. Despite the devastating circumstances in which we found ourselves there, Mum’s care team always make us smile! It’s where consultants have answered our (many) questions and where Mum is currently enrolled onto a Clinical Trial. 

The Christie Charity provides enhanced services for patients and their families which we have definitely benefited from! 

I volunteered as a public speaker for The Christie Charity (2017 - 2022) and now I want to run the Marathon in aid of The Christie Charity, to give back to this incredible cause.
