So glad you have already over met your fundraising target!

Lots of forum members do R4Life as their next step. Its a real motivator and a great cause.

Good luck to all who are running.

Yes I know what you mean. Two weeks ago my daughter ran her first HM, two years after her kidney transplant. She raised over £2500 from friends and family. It was for a cancer related charity close to our family’s heart, because her Dad (Mr M). has been undergoing a range of very radical cancer treatments for the past three years. Unfortunately his cancer is incurable. The funds raised will be used to continue trials to find new treatments, help families etc.

My first R4L some years ago was in memory of my dad, and in support of a close friend who had just completed her own successful cancer treatment.

These events have a great atmosphere.

Enjoy the run!

That's amazing amount of money 😊 I'm sorry to hear your husband's cancer is incurable hopefully one day we will be able to cure them all.
