Thank you for visiting our fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online for the Race for Life I have just completed with Jo on Sunday 7th May, in Marlborough.
Almost everyone I know has been affected by cancer to some degree, and Jo and I want to do all we can to help prevent other people being in the same situation in the future. This is why, despite our novice status as runners, we're giving this a go!
As a charity, Cancer Research UK rely overwhelmingly on the success of fundraising events such as Race for Life to continue our life-saving research into the prevention, treatment and cure of all forms of cancer.
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Cancer Research UK will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
So please sponsor me now!
Thursday 4th May - 3 Days to Go!! Well, Race Day is almost here. Jo and I have reached our running peak, and in practice have both run for the full 5km now. Even better than that, we have both gone way over our original sponsorship targets, so thank you so much to everyone for their support. However, this doesn't mean we don't want more!! Mwahaha!
07/05 - WE DID IT!!! We completed the 5km running the entire way in 27mins and 54 seconds!! We are very chuffed with this considering we couldn't run for a minute at the start of all this. We are both incredibly grateful to all our sponsors. We have between us raised over £1000 which is a massive feat and we couldn't have done it without your support.
You can carry on sponsoring us until the 21st May so please don't stop now!! Every little bit makes a massive difference :)
If you'd like to sponsor Jo too, please go to her page: http://www.raceforlifesponsorme.org/jomackereth Thanks again.
