As many of you know just over 2 years ago my sister passed away from cancer.

It was a long and painful process that was truely horrible to see happen to someone that you love so much.

In the latter stages of her life she spent most of her time at the Marie Curie hospice in Hampstead. It was there where she recieved great palliative care in order to make her days as pain free and comfortable as possible.

The work of all the staff at Marie Curie and the charity as a whole is simply phenominal, and without charitable donations so many Cancer patients would not receive the care that they need and deserve.

For these reasons i am running 2 10k races and a half marathon.

Bupa 10k (completed 27/5/13) British 10k (14/7/13) Fulham 10k (15/9/13)

Royal parks half marathon (6/10/13)

I have been training hard week in week out to try and achieve my ultimate goal of completing the half marathon in the best time possible.

I will also be doing various other activities to raise money for Marie Curie, all of which i will keep you updated with.

So please donate whatever you can to this amazing cause that helps so many people.

Thanks, Zach x
