Behind every running community is a story that reminds us why we do this. This is Sophie’s story.
Sophie Wilson died of ovarian cancer in November 2024, aged 29, after battling the disease through multiple diagnoses, surgery and chemotherapy and facing all of it, by every account, without complaint and without giving up. On 11th November 2024, Sophie married her husband Edward at Poole Hospital. It was the same day she passed away.
This October, Edward together with Sophie's parents Mike and Jackie, her siblings Sam and Michael, and a team of close friends are taking on Sophie's Mile: a mile-long truck pull, completed in 20-metre sections, on Bournemouth Promenade between Bournemouth and Boscombe Pier, on Saturday 10 October 2026.
It's a huge physical challenge, taken on to raise awareness of ovarian cancer and to support Target Ovarian Cancer, the UK's leading ovarian cancer charity, which works to improve early diagnosis, fund research, and support people affected by the disease.
Follow their journey. Share Sophie's story. Donate if you can.
Every bit of support helps turn her memory into something that changes what happens next for other women and families.

EVENT DAY TIPS!
1. Be organised
Read your event information pack, make sure you know start details, what kit you'll wear, how you'll get there and when, what (and who!) you'll take with you.
2. Arrive early
Make sure you arrive AT LEAST 30 minutes before your run to complete your warm up. With hundreds of runners participating, things may take slightly longer than normal and you don't want to be running to the starting line!
3. Dress appropriately
Make sure you have some good kit for event day, especially a good pair of shoes. Keep an eye on the weather, and make sure you come prepared.
4. Pin your bib on correctly
Your running number goes on the front of your shirt, not the back. Your bib not only lets event officials know you're part of the run, it also contains your timing chip, so make sure it's not bent or covered with clothing or a running belt.
5. Enjoy yourself!
Remember you're doing something awesome so enjoy the challenge, the atmosphere and the whole event!
