Rough Runner - North East 2018 · 21 July 2018 to 22 July 2018 ·

Every day in the UK, another 240 people wake up to the catastrophic impact of a stroke. The Stroke Association is the only charity in the UK providing lifelong support for all stroke survivors and their families.

Story

As some of you may or may not know, at the end of September 2017, I lost my Dad all of a sudden due to a stroke - there were no warning signs, and it came completely out of the blue.

I have always been aware of the seriousness of Strokes, but it was not until it personally affected me that I realised the true extent of them. My aim is to raise awareness, but also aid in the recovery of Stroke sufferers. 

After spending the last few weeks thinking of ways I can raise money and awareness, I have decided that I (along with Milan Tinant, James Linsley and Jordan Marsh) will run the 'Rough Runner' 15km event - it is an event which would sum my Dad up to a tee - tough but a bit of a laugh really!

Please help us raise as much as possible for this truly great cause!
