Every year, our incredible #TeamOrange take on the Great North Run in support of the 70,000 children and adults in the UK living with a muscle-wasting condition.

We cannot wait to be back to cheer on #TeamOrange from Newcastle through to the finish in South Shields when the Great North Run returns on Sunday 12 September 2021. It's going to be special. And we need your support now more than ever.

Over 70,000 young children and adults live with a muscle-wasting condition in the UK today. There's no cure, it limits and, in many cases, shortens lives. Muscular Dystrophy UK funds pioneering research into treatments and cures to improve lives today and transform those of future generations. We offer information, advice and support to help people live well with a muscle-wasting or associated condition. And were driving change to see better care so that people can stay active, independent and connected.
