Running the Great Wall of China Marathon in honour of my dad

By Cloudia Edinburgh

I'm fundraising for Pancreatic Cancer UK.

I’m running the Great Wall of China Marathon in May 2026 in honour of my dad, who sadly lost his battle with pancreatic cancer two years ago. On 20th March 2026, we should have been celebrating his 60th birthday - instead, I’ll be pushing myself to do something meaningful in his memory.

In September last year, I began this journey with zero running experience, and I’ve been documenting every step on TikTok as I work towards this challenge.

If you’re able to like, share, or donate, it would mean the world. Your support helps fund vital research and brings us one step closer to beating this disease. Let’s fight pancreatic cancer together. 💜

My donations could fund...

23 hours with a nurse on our Support Line

or

10 hours of early diagnosis research
