Congratulations, Karl and Michael!
We’re super proud of our dynamic duo, Karl Avison and Michael Kipling for completing the Great North Run and raising over £2300!
Farmer Karl completed the half marathon in 2 hours and 32 mins and raised £1635 for Cancer Research UK whilst Michael Elf ran the race in 1 hour and 54 minutes and raised £674 for British Heart Foundation.
“It’s a long race, but the crowd were amazing and knowing that we were both running to raise valuable funds for charities that are close to our hearts helped us to dig deep when it got tough,” said Karl.
There’s still time to lend your support to the cause: https://fundraise.cancerresearchuk.org/page/karls-giving-page-134
Thanks to everyone who has donated. It means a lot to us and to the charities.
