This Year I will be running the Great North Run as part of a team in honour of Rachel Blaylock. Rachel sadly passed away on the 3 August 2014 in a car accident. She was one of the funniest, kindest, most amazing people I have ever met. She was a great friend to me and many other people, including my running mates, and she is deeply missed by all of us.

 Rachel was planning on running the 2014 Great North Run, however passed away before the run happened. This year a large group of us have decided to run in memory of Rachel, and would like to raise a substantial amount of money for a number of charities to be donated in her name. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Any donation no matter how large or small is greatly appreciated (although small donations may result in me turning up at your door with a bucket).

Thanks,

Phil
