Running the London Marathon while playing the trombone… with stage 4 bowel cancer
The London Marathon is only a few days away, and we often hear passionate, inspiring and sometimes crazy stories in the lead up – but maybe not quite like this.
After being diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic bowel cancer 18 months ago, Londoner Nathaniel Dye perhaps surprisingly took up running.
With the average patient for the illness only being given a 50/50 chance of surviving the year, Nathanial is already defying the odds.
After believing to be the first person to run 100 miles with a stoma bag, he’s now embarking on the London Marathon – with a trombone of all things!
Nathaniel came into the London Live studio to speak to Henry about his amazing endeavour.
