Great North Run

The photographic roof is finally in. I really did run in this year’s Great North Run. This is the only photo in the set that doesn’t show me running with my head down.

It must have been the moment that two of the Red Arrows flew just overhead and gave a lot of us a hell of a fright!

I’d like to take the opportunity to thank everyone who sponsored me in the run on behalf of St Oswald’s Hospice. If you would like to make a donation based on the anguish etched in my face (cue gypsy violinist) you can do that here.

Just to prove that insanity plows a deep furrow in our family I’ve signed up to do next year’s Edinburgh Marathon on May 31st the week after my 50th birthday. (I can’t wait to see those photos).
