This year we are running as a father-son team in the Great North Run in support of CAFOD. Between us we've run approx 300 miles in training, worn out three pairs of trainers and had more 6am starts than I care to remember.

We have supported CAFOD as a family for as long as I can remember and this year we wanted to go the extra (13) mile. We are running as an act of solidarity for the millions of people in the world who are living in poverty and don't have access to the basic things that we often take for granted, like clean water. CAFOD works with people in the poorest communities across the world to raise them from poverty.

We'd be really grateful if you could sponsor us to help us raise money for an amazing cause
