Story

WALKING WITH CRAIG – THE CRAIG MAXWELL WALES COASTAL PATH CHARITY WALK & CYCLE 2024 I am taking part in a walk to support my good friend Craig Maxwell. I will joining Craig on the 28th Feb to walk from Goodwick to St David’s. Around 24 miles. https://www.pieevents.co.uk/events/walescoastpathwalk2024/ https://craigmaxwell-quicdna.justgiving-sites.com/ It will be hike along the Wales Coastal path as he aims to fundraise and raise awareness of the Maxwell Family Fund at Velindre. The funds raised will help support research and development of new and innovative cancer testing methods and treatments in Wales. Craig will be walking 576 miles and cycling 204 miles, a total of 780 miles, of the Wales Coastal path, starting in Chester on Wednesday 14th February and ending at the Principality Stadium on Sunday 10th March for the Wales vs. France Guinness Six Nations match, where Craig accompanied by his children, Isla and Zach, will carry the match ball onto the pitch. The reason for 780 miles is that it took 78 days for Craig to be diagnosed with a rare form of genetic lung cancer, EFFR+, which is an inoperable, incurable stage 4 diagnosis. Through a series of fundraising events such as the London Marathon, Cardiff to Paris bike ride, Paris to Bordeaux bike ride, and Welsh 3000s to name a few, Craig has so far raised nearly £1 million for Velindre Cancer Care. Craig is aiming to complete the event in 26 days, which is the amount of time he hopes to help to reduce the diagnosis time by.
