I am running the Great North Run as part of #TeamStroke


On the 8th of September I am taking part in the Great North Run on behalf of the Stroke Association. As many of you know, my mam had a severe stroke when she was 23 leaving her completely paralysed on her left side. She was told she would never walk again and never had children but she overcome the odds and done both. She has never recovered but has learned to live with only using one arm and walking with a leg splint, also raising two children. I am running this half marathon for my mam and everyone who has been affected by a stroke. 


There are over 1.3 million stroke survivors in the UK, with 100,000 strokes happening in the UK each year. That's one stroke every five minutes.
