“I had a fab time running the Great North Run. I felt quite proud to get around in 2½ hours, although I was a bit disturbed to be beaten by Scooby-Doo and a piece of cheese!” Helen, team 2004.

Why you should put on your running shoes for us:

The money raised from this running event helps us to support people living with, and affected by, HIV and poor sexual health. By the end of this year there will be 100,000 people living with HIV in the UK. We want to raise as much as possible from events such as the Bupa Great North Run to fund the increasing demand on our services, and we couldn’t do it without people like you!
