My Story
In 2021 , I started taking running more seriously and signed up to the Manchester Marathon in hope to raise £1000 for cancer research. To my surprise I managed to raise £1250, which I was over the moon with. I’ve now completed 5 marathons and finally achieved the iconic sub 3. I feel my next challenge is to raise money for a charity again, one that’s close to our families heart. The Great North run feels extra special as the finish line is right next to my Grandparents caravan in South Shields. If you could spare a few pounds it would be much appreciated. Thanks, Jacob.
