I'm supporting cancer research and prevention with Can Too Foundation. 

1 in 3 women and 1 in 2 men will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. This means that potentially someone we love may have to battle cancer, and that's a statistic that needs to change. 

So I asked myself, "what can I do to help?" That's where the Can Too Foundation came in! Can Too provides professionally coached training programs for participants of any fitness level to run, swim and cycle their way to a healthier lifestyle and a cancer-free world. 

In return, I am raising valuable funds that go towards innovation in the prevention, care, and control of cancer. Since 2005, Can Too Foundation has trained over 22,000 participants and raised over $30,000,000 to invest in over 150 cancer research grants.

It would be fantastic if you could sponsor me, or even better join me in a program!

Thank you for your support!

 

My Updates

Mudgee Marathon

Monday 28th Jul
Myself and Katey loved CanToo so much, we signed up for another CanToo program as part of the Inner West Pod (I'm STILL telling myself it isn't a Run Club but it might be a dog adoption club - we have our wonderful Maisie thanks to the last program). 

CanToo is a wonderful program that has a twofold mission:
"to inspire individuals to achieve personal health and wellbeing goals and to fund innovative early-career cancer research". You can read more about the amazing program on their website. 

I successfully completed the HOKA Sydney Half back in May and raised $1000 for cancer research thanks to all the wonderful people in our lives!

I have now set a ridiculous goal of trying to complete the Mudgee Marathon on Sunday 17th August. In addition to trying to achieve this goal, I am also hoping to raise another $1000 for CanToo.

Both Katey and I are working hard every week in the lead up with two sessions with our pod each week (taking turns now as we help Maisie settle in) and additional solo runs throughout the week.

Before this year, I was lucky to run 10km. So we have been well and truly increasing our kilometres and fitness and continue to try and raise awareness and funds, so if you have a capacity to donate in anyway, it would be greatly appreciated. 

Team orange! Inner West is Best!

Thanks!
Dan
