;w^ ; di*h^Mdvortlscr,cauk i;! to raise charity cash by Faiza Aizaal
A CHARITY champion who suffers from cystic fibrosis has completed her first half-marathon in aid of gene ther apy research.-
' Sophie Longton (23), of Woodhead
Road, Read, and three friends, Elizabeth Morgan; Tarnsin Ridgwell and Ellie Fit zgerald, took part in London’s Run to the
I Beat and raised more than £2,300. Sophie was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis,
the UK’s most common life-threatening in herited disease, at the age of eight. It is caused by a defective gene, which clogs the internal organs - specifically the
■ lungs and digestive system - with a thick sticky mucus, leading to chronic infections
. and difficulty digesting food. However, she has never let the condition
prevent her from leading a busy and active lifestyle and has always campaigned to raise
■ awareness of CF. ' Last year she was chosen to take part
in an inspirational journey with the BBC2 Horizon episode “Miracle Cure? A Decade of the Human Genome”; in which she met and interviewed scientists researching gene therapy for CF. Sophie, who is a former pupil of Clithe-
: roe Royal Grammar School and is currently working as an academic mentor at Mount Carmel High School, Accrington, said: “We all finished the run in two hours and three
. minutes, so faster than we expected! “We did it together and out of 17,000
runners I came 7,081 so I’m really happy! It was a fantastic event, the atmosphere was amazing and the music really spurred
