57,000 determined and dedicated runners make the Great North Run the World’s biggest and best half marathon – famous for its warm North East welcome, unbeatable atmosphere and the millions raised for good causes, and what better cause than MFC Foundation.

An amazing organisation that helps and offers so much to its community. Raising aspirations and continuously providing opportunities to improve life choices from all ages. 

The foundation leave no stone unturned from free football sessions, knitting, to cooking and dance classes improving participants mental health and well-being is at the forefront of every decision made. Alongside creating amazing relationships with schools and delivering so many programmes that cover all subjects.

I've crazily signed up with 50 days to go. The furthest I've ran to date is 6K, so 13.1 miles is a little scary. However I am so determined and excited to train and put all my energy into something for such a good cause.

Thank you!
