Great North Run


Dr Who?

Recommended Posts

I am running the Great North Run with my daughter on September 10th. I secured the spot through ballot, and did and do not need to raise any money for a charity, but my motivation as always been in support of mental health after suffering from depression in 2018/2019. Even though I have been good ever since coming off the tablets, I still am very aware of how I self destructed and tried to destroy my marriage and family at the same time. 

if you can please sponsor me and give money to this great charity that I hold close to my heart and head.

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who has donated to the above. I do not think I have met any of you on here, but I am always amazed by the generosity of fellow Saints fans and those that have been impacted in one way or another through mental health and the lack of resources for it. 

We had a nice write up here in the local press in Carlisle, even though I would have preferred them to say father and daughter, rather than man and daughter. 
 

Thank you 😊

I used to be clinically fed up. I think a run through the north would tip me over though 

You could run it with an air of superiority looking down your nose at the peasants applauding you. Smug in the knowledge you whatever else goes wrong in your life you will never be a Geordie
