In March 23 I lost my Dad to Lung Cancer.

Unfortunately due to a fall and cracking 6 ribs days before he was due to start Chemo he wasnt lucky enough to get his chance at surviving the Cancer and sadly died 6 weeks later .

In the run up to being diagnosed with lung cancer my dad had set off on his own journey to get fit loosing nearly 3.5 stone over a few months by walking twice a day and eating a healthier diet. Little did we know at the time he was doing this with one of his lungs collapsed and the cancer was there.

We were told when we first found out he had lung cancer that the weight loss and walking had given him a greater chance of survival.

He was committed to the cause and I will fullfill my challenge of 31 miles if not more ,with the same determination he showed and make him proud that his memory lives with us daily .

I hope this goes a small way to help others in the same situation battling thus cruel disease.
