As a family who have been closley affected by blood cancer, I knew there was no other charity than Leukaemia UK that I wanted to strongly support for this Half Marathon. I am running this race for my Grandad, in which I hope would have made him very proud - as the strong, resilient and amazing man he was. I am fundraising for Leukaemia UK to help fund research for better treatment and cure and to help support all those others sadly affected by leukaemia.

This one's for you Grandad.
