You probably know me as a Datum360 software developer. Maybe we crossed paths in Tang Soo Do, or perhaps we've clicked at school, university, over a board game, sketchbook or a hearty cuppa (no milk, no sugar).

Where we definitely didn't meet is on a jog. Or a running club. Or a 5k race. Because you see, I don't run, never have!... and yet I am somehow fully committed to give it my all and smash those 13mi (21.097494 km) in September this year!

With 199 days to go, I will be sharing key moments of my journey to the Great North Run here with you. Any donation would be highly appreciated!

Crohn's & Colitis UK are the UK's leading charity for Crohn's and Colitis. Right now, over 500,000 people in the UK are living with a lifelong disease that many people have never heard of. 

I am taking part in the 2024 Great North Run to support Crohn's & Colitis UK, and your donation can help Crohn's & Colitis UK's mission to improve diagnosis and treatment; to fund research and raise awareness.
