BREAKING A GUINNESS WORLD RECORD - AND WHY IT MATTERS

In April 2026, I’ll line up at the London Marathon aiming to beat the official Guinness World Record for 'Fastest Marathon Dressed as a Body Part',

This isn’t about a silly outfit, it’s about breaking stigma and getting young men checking themselves - because early detection saves lives.

TOGETHER WE CAN 
SAVE LIVES

My name is Toby and I founded a charity called  The Robin Cancer Trust in 2012 after I lost my brother, Robin, to testicular cancer when he was just 24.

​

Testicular Cancer is the most common cancer in young men - affecting 2,400 people every year - but it’s 95% curable if caught early.

 

My hope has always been to prevent another family from going through what mine did - but I can't do it alone...​​

- This is why The Robin Cancer Trust exists.
This is why I run.
