Meet our ASICS London 10k runners
This Sunday we have 6 runners taking on the ASICS 10k for Nerve Tumours UK!
Before the run we thought we would take some time to share with you just why some of the runners have decided to go the extra mile for NTUK
– Tracy Dwyer"My beautiful daughter Bonnie was diagnosed with NF1. I'm supporting Nerve Tumours UK because their mission means a great deal to me. They provide crucial support to people living with the Neurofibromatoses- the conditions that cause nerve tumours."
Denise Lawrence Beard is also supporting NTUK
