This year will be my sixth Great North Run in a row and it still means just as much every time I lace up. What started as a personal challenge has become something much bigger for me, pushing myself while raising money for an incredible cause.

I’m proud to be supporting the Great North Air Ambulance Service. They do unbelievable work across the North East, North Yorkshire and Cumbria, bringing life saving care directly to people when they need it most. Whether it’s roadside, remote or right in the middle of a city, they are there making a real difference.

Every mile I run is for them and for the people whose lives they help save.

If you can, please support me with a donation or even just a share. It genuinely makes a difference and gives me that extra push on the day.

Let’s make year six the biggest one yet.
