Together we are beating cancer
2019 Simplyhealth Great North Run
Sun 8 Sep 2019 - Sun 8 Sep 2019
When I met my wife I was fortunate enough to also gain a fantastic group of her friends who had all met whilst at Newcastle University. Tragically, in January 2018 we lost a member of our group, when lovely Sophie lost her fight with cancer. Fittingly, our group of friends are now returning to the city so we can run the Great North Run in order to raise funds for Cancer Research in memory of Sophie.
