Wigan will be running 27 miles in memory of their son, who died when he was just a few hours old. Lindsay Stanton, 37, gave birth to Zak, 20 weeks and five days into her pregnancy.
Zak only lived for a few hours before dying in the arms of his father, Paul Stanton, 43, in the Pearl Suite at Royal Albert Edward Infirmary on October 27, 2015.
Five years after their devastating loss, Lindsay and Paul, of Poolstock, are running 27 miles to raise money for Aching Arms charity's ‘Miles in Memory’ campaign.
