Robert McHarg,<br />

47,<br />

Scotland<br />

Just five months after Robert completed the London Marathon in 2011 his<br />

wife was diagnosed with secondary breast cancer, for which there is no<br />

cure. She was just 42 years old. Robert’s children have all been fundraising<br />

over the last year and so running the London Marathon is his way of<br />

helping. Robert says: “My wife is an inspiration and I want to show her that<br />

anything is possible, even her 46 year old, overweight husband getting<br />

back on the road and completing another Marathon while raising as much<br />

money as possible for a cause which is very close to our hearts."<br />

Wayne<br />

Littlewood, 30<br />

Coventry<br />

Wayne is running the London Marathon for Breast Cancer Care after his<br />

mum passed away in April 2012, she was first diagnosed with breast<br />

cancer in 2007. Wayne has always been very athletic and was a semi<br />

professional footballer when he was younger. In recent years Wayne had<br />

begun weight lifting and body building. Consequently the Marathon training<br />

has had a dramatic effect on his body and he lost 3 ½ stone within the first<br />

six weeks of training!<br />
