“I always wanted to run a marathon by the time I was 30. I missed this goal, so I signed up just after my 30th birthday and have achieved it before my 31st.

I then lost my uncle to bowel cancel in June 2024, as well as having another friend who is also going through treatment at the moment for this terrible disease, so I thought what better way to raise awareness and funds to help kick this!

The run went well, and I managed to complete it in 4 hours, 30 minutes! Attached is a photo that I took at the finish line of the Sydney Marathon.” ~ Ryan.
