In memory on my mum
In April I run another half marathon (The London Landmarks) with Target Ovarian Cancer; at that time my mum was just getting into remission from a pretty nasty Ovarian cancer, after a big surgery and 8 rounds of chemo. The worst, however, seemed to have passed and we were looking forward to a better summer than the previous one.
A lot can happen in a few months however - in May we found out a very aggressive and early relapse came back only a few months after surgery.
Unfortunately my mum passed away in July, exactly 12 months after finding out about having a stage 3 ovarian cancer.
This year experience shows the key importance of prevention as a way to give us the best chances to get through such a nasty disease, hence why I will be running again in October the Royal Half Parks, fundraising for Target Ovarian Cancer.
My mum up until the illness was a keen runner and we did a lot of races together here in London, including the Richmond Half Marathon, so hopefully this will keep her memory alive.
Thanks for the donations in advance!
