Last summer my grandad died very suddenly from a stroke. He was a very fit and healthy 70 year old, so it was such a shock to all his family and friends. He will always be an inspiration to me as a natural leader but also very comical.He achieved so much in his life it has inspired me to reach out to succeed and doing the Great North Run was one my challenges I wanted to do.

Whether it is very small donations or larger donations I will be very grateful for your generosity and can't wait to take the challenge of half a marathon!
