Why run for us in the Sydney Marathon?
By supporting Make-A-Wish UK and becoming a #WishHero in the 2025 Sydney Marathon, you'll be transforming the lives of families like Finley's. In October of 2022, Finley's parents were told that they only had a matter of days left with their three-year-old son following the resurgence of his cancer. But his wish to have the Paw Patrol characters visit him allowed him to enjoy something within the comfort of his own home whilst making valuable long-lasting memories with his family and friends.
