Laura & Matt's half marathon

By Laura Johnson

I am fundraising for Pancreatic Cancer UK.

Pancreatic cancer is tough to diagnose, tough to treat and tough to research. 

Laura's Dad who lives in Australia was diagnosed with this disease at the end of last year. 

A diagnosis of cancer is tough at any time but made harder by Covid restrictions and being on the other side of the world from the family member affected.

We are running our first half marathon (The Windsor Half Marathon) on 26th September We hope it won't be too tough although know that the first part is up the long walk (which will be run) and has other hills before the end.

Please support us and help make a difference to researching the treatment of pancreatic cancer.

My donations could fund...

35 hours with a nurse on our Support Line

or

15 hours of early diagnosis research

My Updates

We did it!

Amazing to have completed our first half marathon. Great to have support of a crowd cheering us on and also the generosity of those who have donated. 
Both of us impressed with our finish times - just hope our legs move tomorrow.

Training update

This is the tough week of training. This has the furthest distance in it if you follow the 12 week training plan (Matt). So far so good, encouraged by the donations to date so thank you to all.
Laura ran 10 miles today - beautiful down the River Wey, but had water-carrier failure and probably dehydration caused me to fly (will be some nice bruises to show)

Thank you to my Sponsors
