Story
Working at the Sheffield Pulmonary Vascular Disease Unit, every day we see the impact that pulmonary hypertension has on our patients - and their loved ones too.
Inspired by the strength and resilience of those we care for, we are taking on this 13.1 mile run to raise money for the charity that supports people with this disease across the UK.
We've chosen what must be the hilliest half marathon in the country, so if you can donate a little money to support our crazy efforts, we would really appreciate it.
Thank you so much, from the Hallamshire Heroes team: John H, Robin, Charlie, Charlotte, Rosie, Mark, Amanuel and Maria :-)
About the charity we're fundraising for:
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is rare, serious and misunderstood. It has a huge impact on people’s lives, and the PHA UK is dedicated to reducing that burden through support, advice, information and advocacy. They raise awareness and fund research to provide better treatments, with the hope of one day finding a cure for this devastating disease. The PHA UK receives no government funding, so every penny donated plays a vital role in helping them support people to live better lives with PH.
