Charlie's Run 4 Kids is a local running group that raises money for a local family. Our number one supporter Charlie Carr lost her battle with Neuroblastoma in April last year. We will continue to run for Charlie and this year, we will also be running for Jacob Cooper. Jacob is 15 years old who is currently undergoing treatment for A.L.L PH+ Leukaemia.
About Jacob: Jacob was a very active kid who had a passion for the outdoors and really appreciated the little things in life.
In August 2012, Jacob was struck down with extremely bad luck, and diagnosed with A.L.L PH+ Luekaemia.
After a very intense two years of chemotherapy and radiation, Jacob was in remission, and slowly gained his life back. Everyday brought him a little more strength, and he was really loving his new lease on life.
Unfortunately, a relapse was just around the corner. With utter devastation, the families worst fears were confirmed in June 2016, Jacob's cancer had returned.
Currently, Jacob is in his second month of treatment, and will undergo a bone marrow transplant some time in the immediate future. The transplant offers Jacob his very best chance of a cure.
Our 20 CR4K runners are men and women who are not professional runners, we will be running 150km over 5 days from Seal Rocks to Lydon Oval Dudley for the Cooper Family. We will have finish line festivities, a family fun day on the last day of our run, the 6th of Nov at Lydon Oval Dudley. There will be food, drinks, bands, kids rides, raffle and auction.
CR4K thanks you for your support. With hope and love.
