Her finish line celebrations are a highlight for many viewers, and they are known as #doingalucy.

As an oncologist, Lucy’s efforts are equally focussed on raising awareness for dangerous disease. She is the Founder of 5k Your Way, Move Against Cancer – a community-based initiative that encourages those who live with cancer and their families to participate in their parkrun events. Along with being a Trustee of the Move Charity, Lucy also co-hosts the Move Against Cancer podcast.

As a keynote speaker, Lucy’s addresses are rooted in the idea that we must make the most of the days we are given, as we only have one shot at life.
