Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This year i am running the Great north run for the british heart foundation in memory of my dad. This charity has a place close to my heart after all the great work and help they provided my dad over the years he suffered heart disease and without their work his life would have been shorter than what it was.

After getting a late entry into last years Great north run i know the hard task that is infront of me and that running a half marathon is no easy task. Last years run saw me damage my foot at around the half way mark and hobble over the finish line in 2 hours 14 minutes, however this year i am looking to break the 2 hour mark if not even faster! 

I started training for this years run in early January and am looking to secure places in the North Tyneside 10k, Blaydon Races and  Great North Run 10k in Gateshead before tackling the half marathon distance in September.

Can i lastly thank everyone for visiting my page and thank everyone for donating to this great charity. Your donations will help me tackle the hard challenges that are infront of me.
