The Great North Run in September 2018
The Great North Run is the largest half marathon in the world in terms of entry, with a route from Newcastle upon Tyne to South Shields.
Many thanks to all those who supported
the British Heart Foundation
by sponsoring my
Great North Run.
It was a fantastic experience!
