In August this year it will be 10 years since my Dad passed away from a heart attack and I have always wanted to do something in memory of him. Recently a couple of friends got me into circuit training and then running to help me lose weight. Since starting I have been encouraged by them to set myself a goal to work toward and watched my friends train and complete the London marathon. When I was looking at potential runs I noticed the Great North Run was on the 10th September 2017 which will be almost 10 years to the day of my Dads funeral. I decided this would be the perfect time and a fitting tribute to him .
