Thank you to everyone who has supported 15 years of fundraising in memory of Sunderland fan Kevin Outhwaite.

Yes. I set up the DeadManRunning1 tag on the other place in 2019.
I had inadvertently signed up for the Great North Run, my first ½ marathon in 30 years, to raise money for @sbrfoundation.bsky.social where I was on my first clinical trial for stage 4 bowel cancer.
