Story

Why am I raising money for Cancer Research UK? 

Over 12.7 million people around the world are diagnosed with Cancer every single year and the repercussions affect many more.

Research into treaments and cures is vital and I've decided to do my small bit to raise as much money as possible.

How am I raising money?

To raise money I'll be running at least 500 miles during the year of 2013.

To ensure my run distances are recorded properly I'll be using a Garmin GPS running watch during all of my runs. This watch uses GPS to track the route and the exact distance of every run!

I've run occasionally during the past but nothing on this scale so this will be a real personal challenge.

Thanks so much for taking the time to read this page and if you'd be willing to make a donation that would be brilliant, even sharing this page amongst friends would be a massive help.
