Ovarian cancer is often called a “silent killer”—and like many women’s health issues, it doesn’t get talked about enough. The symptoms are easily missed, the diagnosis often comes too late, and the impact can be devastating.
In this deeply moving and inspiring episode, I’m joined by Craig McMurrough and Sarah Fritchley—also known as Mr and Mrs Ovary—who are quite literally running across the UK in giant ovary costumes to change that.
Craig began fundraising for Ovacome after losing his sister Cheryl just three weeks after she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Sarah joined the mission following the loss of her mum to bowel cancer. Together, they’ve turned personal grief into powerful advocacy, raising vital awareness of symptoms and encouraging women to trust their instincts and speak up.
To date, Craig has completed more than 30 races, set a Guinness World Record, been named a Pride of Britain Fundraiser of the Year finalist, and recently received the British Citizen Award for Services to Healthcare—a national honour recognising his exceptional contribution to health awareness and education.
This episode is a call to action: to talk more openly about women’s health, to listen more closely to our bodies, and to support those turning their pain into purpose.
