Story

This year I've taken on the challenge to run the Great North Run in September 2022. Anyone who knows me well, knows that i'm certainly not a natural runner (major understatement)! So this will truly be a hard feat to complete. 

I will be running for Blood Cancer UK in memory of my Nana, Glenys Thomson, who passed away ten years ago this year after a short battle with Leukaemia. 

I've decided to raise money for this great charity to help them continue to find better ways to treat blood cancer and hopefully one day find a cure. I'm hugely grateful for any donation as it will no doubt make my weeks of training worthwhile.

Many thanks,

Adam (Bakey)
