What you’ll get by running for us:
- The chance to be part of a team
- A free t shirt to wear on the day
- Support in the lead up to the marathon. including help and tips to plan and promote your fundraising efforts, and motivation to continue your training and preparation
- Support on the day with the team cheering you on
- The opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of our students or cancer patients around the world
“I’m fundraising for the Cancer Immunology Fund because I’m able to see every day through working here at the University the incredible impact the people, ideas, and tools have. We all know someone who has been through a personal journey with cancer, whether that’s themselves or a family member/friend. I want to do this to not only push myself but help in any way I can.” – Sophie, 2024 ABP Southampton 10K runner.
