Marathon for Pancreatic Cancer
I'm raising money for the Garven Institute of Medical Research in honour of my Uncle Steve, who passed away late 2019 of pancreatic cancer just 2 weeks after he was diagnosed. Pancreatic cancer has such a low survival rate because it is usually detected far too late, when it's already spread to other areas of the body. By donating to the Garven Institute you'll be contributing to the research into new and personalised treatment methods.
I'll be running the Brisbane marathon which is a total of 42.2km on the 5th June. This is approx. 4 and half hours of running and 1000's of training kms. It's 7 weeks away!
Ironically, Steve would be saying something along the lines of "Why the hell would you want to run for 4.5 hours straight" but alas, I'm doing it anyway and hoping to raise $1000.
Any donation is greatly appreciated - thank you!
If you wish to follow my running journey you can find me on strava (Jess Diver), but I'll post any major achievements here!
May 15th is my first half marathon race event so stay tuned for that!
