Hi there, I think for me this years Great North Run might just have to be renamed The Great North Bits of Run With Quite a Lot of Walking in Between!! But I'm determined to do it and have fun?!! I've never attempted anything like this before but my best friend, who has MS, cycled from Lands End to John O Groats a couple of years ago and that really inspired me and made me feel like it was about time I got off the sofa and did something too! So along with my mad dog Angus I've been trying to get fit although if I'm honest he'd make 13 miles look easy and I think I'll miss having him towing me along on the day!! I will be really grateful for any donations and I will let you know how it goes.........!!Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
