A huge thank you to Jason Spicer, who has raised an incredible £1,500 for Scoliosis Support & Research!![]()
Jason ran 5K every single day throughout April, covering 193km over 30 different routes (and 8000+ feet of elevation!) — all to honour his daughter Imogen, who was diagnosed with scoliosis in 2022 and bravely underwent surgery in March 2024.![]()
This challenge marked her one-year "spiniaversary" 🎉 and was Jason’s way of giving back after the amazing care Imogen received. As a family of runners, it was a meaningful and emotional journey — and we are truly inspired by their strength and determination. ![]()
Thank you Jason (and Imogen!) — your story, support and spirit mean the world to us. ![]()
