Story

I’m just a middle aged man who is just trying to not feel completely useless while watching my dad suffer from Cancer. So I decided to get my ass off the sofa and run a marathon so you guys don’t have to!!😀 what I would like you all to do though is give as much money as you can to this seriously under funded charity!! Cancer affects us all, we have either lost someone or watch our loved ones deteriorate through chemotherapy.  Many families are suffering and my heart goes out to all of them. Many thanks for any donations! 

 The Bone Cancer Research Trust is dedicated to saving lives & improving outcomes for people affected by primary bone cancer. Despite being small, they fund more research projects exploring primary bone cancer than any other organisation. Other large UK cancer research charities do not prioritise bone cancer patients, in 2019 just 0.028% of their research spend went to bone cancer – not even close to 1%!Last year alone, Bone Cancer Research Trust committed an incredible £807,824 to pioneering bone cancer research - to save lives!
