Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As some of you may already know, my lovely 16year old neighbour Pippa was diagnosed in October 2009, with a rare form of Sarcoma called Paediatric Wild-type GIST (Gastro Intestinal Stromal Tumour) GISTs are a rare form of cancer which usually affect people in later life, so I guess you could say that Pippa is a bit “special!”

As GIST is such a rare cancer, which doesn't respond to "traditional" forms of chemotherapy or radiotherapy, funds are always needed to help with vital research to help find a cure for this type of cancer, and to provide support and information for people like Pippa, and their families.  So in order to raise both awareness of this type of cancer and funds, I’ve taken on this run as a personal challenge, my first ever 10k race, as part of "Team GIST" to benefit The Sarcoma Trust.

Any donation you can make will be very much appreciated,

Thanks
