Many congratulations to my daughter,
with running her first marathon 13.1 miles,
from Newcastle to Gateshead,
taking part in the Great North Run.
She did the run in a time of 02:55:19.
She was part of a team,
her partner ran the marathon in 01:54:04,
& his father's time was 02:34:38.
Their funraising efforts will be going to BIBIC,
a childrens' Charity.

The day was also made special
with a display from the Red Arrows,
a first appearance from them since the
sad lost of one of their pilots recently,
who's widow started the race,
& ran the marathon aswell.

Well done to them All!
