Fundraiser - Ali's Cambridge Half Marathon

Story

Cambridge Half Marathon, Sunday 3rd March, 2024

So happy to be supporting “Something To Look Forward To” - such an inspirational charity that helps people affected by cancer when they need it most.

You can find out more about what the charity does here.

I've decided to set myself a challenge in the year I celebrate a 'big' birthday and if I can complete the half marathon for the first time whilst raising money for a great cause then what better motivation.

Sadly, we've experienced both the loss of very close family friends to cancer and the pain of others having undergone treatment and, as much as we continue to need more research and cures, having spoken to one of those families they said how very important having something to look forward to was to them.

To be able to support a local charity that will help put a smile on peoples' faces when they need it most will hopefully motivate me in my training and help me get over the line.
