2017 Simplyhealth Great North Run
Sun 10 Sep 2017
In memory of
Grandad, Uncle Jimmy, Penny and baby Brendan x
One in two people are diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. Everyone I know, knows someone who has lost their life to it and my family is no exception. I adore running and would love to combine this with raising money. I am training for the Great North Run in September and have a target of £400 to raise for Cancer Research UK. I would be grateful for any donations no matter how small for this fabulous cause. Help bring forward the day when all cancers are cured!! I am running in memory of my Grandad, Uncle Jimmy, Penni and baby Brendan. Thank you in advance xxx
