After 2 previous attempts, thwarted by injury, this year to your surprise and mine I am going to have my first ever attempt at the Great North Run! Training is going well so far and I've completed my first 10 mile run with the support of my friend and training partner Lucy.

My goal is to raise £350 for the MY Hospitals Charity, specifically to support patient experience in clinical trials within the clinical research team where I work and, therefore, a cause close to my heart. Your generous support will make a meaningful impact in developing services in the Clinical Research and innovation building at Pinderfields Hospital, Wakefield I really appreciate any support you can give in contributing towards this amazing team .

Your support will give me the motivation I need to haul my ass over that finish line!
