I’m fundraising for Cancer Council Victoria to help stop cancer.
As some will know I will be returning to the UK in May 2022. to visit my 92 year old father in the village of Elstead in Surrey where I was born and raised. It will be a happy occasion after years of being unable to return home.
Coincidently my last day in Elstead on 24 June is also the date of the 110th year of the Elstead 'Marathon' a 5.5 mile race that I last competed in when I was 17 years old. My late brother Paul, was the cup holder in both 1976 & 1977.
I have therefore decided to run in memory of Paul and my mum Jessie both of whom were taken early by cancer. Running with me will be a number of childhood friends whose families have also been significantly impacted by cancer.
Every year more than 35,000 Victorians hear the words ‘you have cancer’.
Thanks in part to generous Victorians, 7 in 10 of them will survive five years after a cancer diagnosis, but there’s still so much work to be done.
Cancer Council needs our support more than ever this year. Every dollar raised gives hope for a cancer free future. By supporting my run, you’re funding life-saving cancer treatments, prevention programs, and support services that ensure no one has to face cancer alone.
Thank you in advance for your donation!
Cheers
Andy

Well done Andy. I reckon I would be doing well running 9 metres let alone 9 kilometres.
