Billy my good friend was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma in May this year. His and his family’s lives have been turned upside down and have changed forever. Billy is super active biking, running, swimming, triathlon, hill walking and anything else that comes his way. So bone pain and having to take it easy is very difficult for him. At diagnosis he made me promise to keep on running for him, so here we are.......

I am proud to have been lucky enough to have met Billy several years ago through a mutual friend am running the Yorkshire 10 miler in October along with a big group of Billy’s friends and family. Running (Any exercise really) speaks Billy's language and by people showing support in this way it makes the journey a little easier for him and his family.

Thank you for reading this.

If you can give as much as you can to help raise much needed funds and support for Billy, his family and the many that are affected by this terrible condition.
