My daughter is Madyson & she was one of the 55 children chosen for this event. She was diagnosis with an inoperable brain tumor. We choose Wolfson’s Children Hospital because she could receive great care & we did not have to split our family up by seek critical medical care at another city. It is a true blessing to have such a remarkable institution here in our city.
“I heard about the 55 from Richard Nunn on Channel 4 just before the 1st run. He was talking about the run. I thought I about doing the 55 but it did not hit me till my daughter was nominated as one of the 55 children representatives for the race so in late August I decided to start to train for the event.”
