Our personal message:

On October 18th 2009 I ran the Cardiff Half Marathon with my mate Dickie Armour, who was running his first ever Half Marathon in memory of his Dad, John Armour. I managed to finally puff Dickie into the race and I'm so proud of what he achieved in Cardiff. 

His dad died from Cancer, Mesothelioma, in 2000 and Dickie has a website dedicated to his memory - www.formydad.co.uk 

He's raised nearly £15,000
 for Cancer Research UK through Triathlons and now running. 

I had always been a club runner but never really ran for charity. But having done the Cardiff Half Marathon I was so affected by the positive vibes and stories of all the cancer sufferers I met on the day that I have pledged my support for Cancer Research UK in memory of Dickie's dad and will be raising money for the cause!!

Dickie and I together, but via seperate fundraising pages are aiming to raise over £10,000 for Cancer Research UK in 2010!!
