Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have a bucket list of 50 things to do before I am 50.   On that list is to run the great north run.     I mentioned to a friend last October that I was planning to run it in 2020 - that evening her husband came back from work and said he needed to find 5 people willing to run the GNR for the chartity he works for (Thomas Pocklington Trust).    Suddenly I was signed up and running it a year earlier than I had thought!! 

I started training in January with the couch to 5k app - at that point I struggled to run for a minute......in march I ran my 5k first park run and at the end of may ran my first 10k.   I am not fast but I do finish (and jog the whole way) - I am actually even enjoying it!

So - I won't promise a fast time for the GNR but I do promise I will complete it!  Any donations for the Thomas Pocklington Trust are very gratefully received - Dad was a life long supporter of RNIB because he had a fear of going blind so I feel he would approve of my charity choice:)
