Hello all,
As many of you will know by now our beloved Dad, Malcolm, sadly passed peacefully surrounded by his family on the 1st of November after a 13 year battle with Neuroendocrine cancer.
Dad was so excited for the Marathons for Malcolm, I remember him telling us that he was so moved that we would want to support NECNZ and in his typical humble fashion was reluctant to put himself and his story at the centre of the fundraising effort. A friend shared a story with me just after he passed that he had been fussing on the computer to finalise the shirts for the run the day he was admitted to hospital.
We are completely overwhelmed and humbled by the response we have had to Marathons for Malcolm. We are so moved by the generosity of this wonderful community of family, friends, colleagues and patients of Dad’s.
The race itself was absolutely awesome, filled with so much emotion and love and support from friends and family 🥹 Unbelievably stoked to get around in 3 hours and 26 minutes 🏃
Dadda this one was for you, I felt you on my shoulder the whole way. I know you will always be on my shoulder every step of the way. I’ll keep running for you always ❤️
Emelia Legget is up next in Queenstown on the 16th of November and Carrie Hobson (Mum) and George Legget (brother) are now running the half to! So please continue to share and donate 🙌
Love Haz X
