Welcome to the North Wales Cancer Appeal
Marathon Heroes in the Heat!
Huge congratulations to our nine incredible runners who bravely took on the London Marathon on Sunday, April 27th—and lived to tell the tale. Not only did they conquer the legendary 26.2 miles, but they did so in what can only be described as sizzling conditions—the hottest marathon day since records began in 1981.
Armed with determination and grit they battled the heat, the pain and the blisters.
They all crossed the finish line— some sprinting, some walking and some even hobbling.
We at North Wales Cancer Appeal are so incredibly grateful to our marathoners and to everyone who supported their efforts. The funds raised will go a long way in helping those affected by cancer in North Wales.
Check out the photos above for a mix of exhausted smiles, relief, pride and pleasure.
To our runners: you’ve earned your medals, CONGRATULATIONS and a huge thank you to you all.
