YES, YOU! You may be asking why a random person you’ve never heard of is telling you such a thing. I’m a less than perfectly fit and able person who, in January this year stood in awe on the start line of the Simplyhealth Great Edinburgh Winter Run, watching three thousand people of every imaginable shape, size, age and physical ability doing something I think is amazing – getting active by running with friends, family and colleagues, sharing together in moving and being healthier. I’m also lucky enough to lead Simplyhealth and we’re the partner of the Great Run Company, the organisers of the Great North 10k. We’re doing this with one simple aim: to get millions moving. We at Simplyhealth are people with a passion and a purpose that’s all about helping people to make the most of life through better everyday health. You might be one of our three and a half million customers who we help every day in lots of ways but, even if you’re not, I hope that through our support of the Great North 10k we can help you in a small way to make the most of life. My dad, who was a GP all of his working life, told me that if you want to be healthy you should smile a lot, sleep enough and get out of breath at least three times a week doing something you love. So, as you do your final training for the Great North 10k, I wish you every success for the big day and, of course, to remind you that you are amazing! Romana Abdin Chief Executive Acknowledgements The organisers of the Simplyhealth Great North 10k would like to thank the following organisations for their help and support in staging the event: Simplyhealth, Gateshead Council, PUMA, Aqua Pura, Duracell, Pure Gym, Arnold Clark, Up & Go, Nirvana Europe, Athletics Weekly, The Journal, Metro Radio, Just Giving, Northumbria Police, North East Ambulance Service, Tyne & Wear Fire & Rescue Service, British Red Cross, Gateshead Harriers, Sunderland Strollers, Gateshead Scouts, South Tyneside Scouts, Westoe Rugby Club and Northumbria University. 2 GREATRUN.ORG RUN PACK SIMPLYHEALTH GREAT NORTH 10K OFFICIAL NUMBER Please check that your run number is identical to the master number on your covering letter.
