On the 18th September 2011 I'm attempting my first ever Great North Run in aid of the Susan Channon Breast Cancer Trust, a North East charity which my dad works very closely with.

Susan Channon, a young mother and laboratory scientist at the RVI Newcastle, was just 36 when she died of breast cancer following a three-year battle with the disease.  The Susan Channon Breast Cancer Trust was set up in her name by husband, Nigel, with the aim of enabling health professionals in the North East to access the most up to date and cutting edge technologies in the research and treatment of breast cancer.

Please donate what you can and encourage me to smash the Griffith family record (1 hour 45 - never going to happen) or at least not get picked up by the sweeper bus.......

Thanks in advance for your generous donations.......no pressure!

UPDATE - first ever GNR completed in 2 hours 10 minutes.  Thanks to everyone who sponsored me.  Looking forward to next year
