Eva’s Races

Eva's Races
Eva to date has run 3 races in aid of Nerve Tumours UK, all in support of her wonderful little niece who was diagnosed with NF1 last year. She has so far ran in and completed the Great North Run, the London ASICS 10k and the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park 10K.
Here Eva tells us a little bit about why she decided to start running for Nerve Tumours UK:
"I started fundraising for Nerve Tumours UK because my little niece Mira was diagnosed with NF1 last year. I knew very little about the condition so started doing some research and came across the charity. I feel incredibly honoured and proud to run my races for Nerve Tumours UK and to be able to raise funds for the charity and awareness of Neurofibromatosis."
