In Loving Memory Of
Steve Keough
To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die
NYC Marathon - for Dad and Pankind
I am running the NYC marathon this November to raise money for Pankind.
I am nowhere near a marathon runner, nor do I commit to any kind of routine, but I have given myself the challenge in honour of my dad and all those who are on the receiving end of their pancreatic cancer diagnosis. Which unfortunately comes almost always too late.
Pankind are the only charity dedicated to improving the outcomes for everyone affected by pancreatic cancer.
Progress only happens when people push for it and that’s what I hope to do with running this marathon.
Running for Steve in 2026
Believe it or not, there are 90+ Keough family members (and counting).
This year my wonderful cousin, Sarah, has organised many of our family members to take part in the Beach2Beach Half Marathon in Sydney on August 23 2026. Our aim is to raise awareness and funds for Pankind.
Dad is from a massive extended family and affectionately known as "Uncle Steve". Dad inspired us all to work hard and give everything a go. So on August 23 we will all be proudly wearing purple and hitting the pavement to run 6km, 10km and a half marathon in his honour.
Please join us in raising much needed awareness and funds for those affected by Pancreatic Cancer
Please make a donation in memory of Steve
This tribute page has been created in honour of Steve Keough, our hero who sadly passed away after his courageous battle with Pancreatic Cancer. He fought with strength and determination right until the very end. We are in awe of his resistance, strength and courage.
Dad requested for anyone who wants to show their support, if able, to please donate to this fundraiser. Any donation big or small will help to fund life-changing research and support for Australians impacted by this terrible disease.
Thank you for keeping Dad in your thoughts and for any contribution, big or small — it means the world to our family
