David Black Goes the Distance for Cancer Research

We are proud to shine the spotlight on David Black, a Piping Supervisor based in Saltend, England, who has gone the extra mile to raise money and awareness for Cancer Research UK.

Over the summer, David took on an incredible series of running challenges in support of the charity. His fundraising journey began with a half marathon in June, where he achieved a personal best. He then completed Rumble in the Jumble IV in Hull on 1st August, a six-hour running event that offers distances ranging from 5K to ultramarathon level.

To finish his challenge, David successfully completed the Beverley Half Marathon on 23rd August and, impressively, shaved time off his previous personal best, finishing in 1 hour and 52 minutes.

In total, David has raised over £500 for Cancer Research UK. David is raising funds in memory of his sister, making these challenges especially meaningful to him. His dedication is helping to raise awareness, fund life-changing research, and support people affected by cancer.

Well done, David, on this fantastic achievement. Your commitment, determination and fundraising efforts are truly inspiring.
