3
girls, 3 pairs of sunglasses and 5 kilometers to conquer
On 31st May 2009 our
3 intrepid Love & Taters, Lisa, Claire and Kaytan, ran 5k for Cancer
Research UK's Race for Life 2009. They had made the
decision earlier in the year to run in memory of Lisa's grandmother
and Claire's granddad who both sadly passed away to Cancer related
illnesses recently. A fun day was had by all and Claire, Lisa
and Kaytan raised £642,
on a scorching hot day in the City. The girls managed to run and
walk the race in 46 minutes. Not bad for 3 girls that haven't
run for fun before!
Events like 'Race for
Life' are vital in funding Cancer Research UK’s life-saving work

dedicated to cancer research. They support research into all aspects
of cancer through the work of more than 4,250 scientists, doctors
