The starting pistol has been fired for the first fundraiser for The Orange Foundation. Garth Dew will run the inaugural Kendal to Preston ultramarathon covering 50 miles on the 11th<\/sup> of May.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Filmmaker Garth opted to run the ultra for several reasons. He said: \u201cI\u2019ve decided to run this race for a cause, choosing The Orange Foundation to support the charity and to pay tribute to Emma, who herself was an exceptional ultra runner and inspiration to all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI considered several good causes, but what I like about The Orange Foundation is its focus on giving people practical and impactful help; there are people around me who are living with cancer, and I wanted to do this to help others cope better with the disease.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Orange Foundation was established in memory of Emma Aindow-Gregory, who died from Bowel Cancer after living with it for four and a half years. The Foundation\u2019s founder, Michael Gregory, added, \u201cI\u2019m overwhelmed whenever we receive support or offers of help, but Garth\u2019s run really struck a chord. Emma would have been really chuffed to see Garth compete, and quite possibly run alongside him \u2013 she would be proud of his achievement, and as a family, we wish him the very best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m looking forward to seeing him at the finish line.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After retiring as a professional rugby union player, Garth looked for a sport to challenge him mentally and physically. He concluded: \u201cI had heard stories of Emma\u2019s running as she was a close family friend and then took more interest in endurance running when reading the book \u2018Born to Run\u2019. I only learnt of the true extent of her mountain and fell running at her memorial, and I just thought it was incredible, so I wanted to do something that would challenge me but also pay tribute to Emma.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Garth\u2019s aiming to raise \u00a32,000.00, which will provide funding for the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
