Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm running this year for the MS Society. Both my sister and sister in law suffer from this debilitating condition so I am really keen to raise some money to help them and fellow sufferers. I would be thrilled if you could make any contribution, really any amount is appreciated so don't feel you have to follow suit with others, every penny is much appreciated and will make the effort worthwhile for me. Who knows I may even don my (in)famous "Whay Aye Man" Geordie superhero outfit for the occasion!!!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.

Update

OMG.....where did that come from?!! I had a great run yesterday in what turned out to be perfect conditions for running (11 degrees, breeze behind, odd shower to cool you down, perfect!!). And what's more I ended up bettering my best time for the GNR, managing to stagger round in a shade under 1 hour 45 mins (1 hour 44 mins 50 secs to be precise). I suspect it is something to do with the stone less weight I am carrying these days as it certainly wasn't to do with my training programme!! As ever a great day in the Toon with my Geordie kinsfolk doing us proud with their warm welcome.

 
Most importantly a huge thank you to you for all the generous sponsorship which is pushing £600 what with Gift Aid and off line donations included, a great effort from you all and I am really grateful. It's still open for a while yet if anyone still wants to donate (www.justgiving.com/vincent-murphy).
 
And maybe some of you may fancy doing the GNR next year, it's a great experience I must say, really inspiring.
 
All the best and thanks again
