2025 Great Manchester Run 10K

Help me reach my goal of £150

I’m taking part in the Great Manchester Run 10K with Dogs Trust!

I’m helping raise money for dogs in need by joining the 2025 Great Manchester Run 10K with Dogs Trust.

The aim of Dogs Trust is to give stray and abandoned dogs a second chance at a brighter future with responsible, caring new owners. In 2023, they were able to successfully rehome over 10,000 dogs and cared for a total of 13,375 dogs (including over 300 Underdogs who had been with Dogs Trust for more than 6 months). With your help, Dogs Trust can continue helping more dogs as the need for their services increases with the current cost of living crisis.  

The work of Dogs Trust is only possible with support like yours, if you’re able to make a small contribution, I know they’d be extremely grateful – and so would the dogs!  

Thank you.

Paws and Running Shoes: A PT’s Journey to the Manchester 10k

Hello, fellow animal lovers and fitness enthusiasts!

Well, I've decided to channel that love for four-legged friends into something pawsitive! This year, I’m lacing up my running shoes and hitting the streets for the Manchester 10k, surrounded by my incredible clients, friends, and colleagues. We’re on a mission to raise funds for Dogs Trust because, let’s face it, I love animals more than humans. (Don't worry, you're all a close second!)

Why Dogs Trust?

If I had my way, I’d have a million dogs, a few horses, and maybe a small zoo in my backyard. But until my lottery numbers come up, supporting Dogs Trust is the next best thing. They do amazing work rehoming dogs, providing veterinary care, and ensuring every pup gets the love they deserve. Basically, they’re the superhero cape to my running shoes.

The Challenge

Running 10k might sound like a walk in the park for a PT, but trust me, it’s serious business—especially when I’m tempted to stop for every wagging tail along the route. My clients are ready to sprint, my friends are gearing up for a jog, and my colleagues... well, they’re promising not to get lost. It’s going to be a day of sweat, laughter, and probably a few dog-related detours.

How You Can Help

We all know times have been ruff (yes, I went there), but if you can spare anything—even the cost of a fancy coffee—it would make a world of difference. Every penny goes to Dogs Trust, helping them continue their incredible work. Plus, donating might just make you my favorite human. No pressure!

Join the Adventure

Whether you’re a runner, a dog lover, or just someone who enjoys a good laugh at my expense, I’d love your support. Cheer us on, spread the word, and let’s make this 10k an unforgettable journey for a fantastic cause.

Thank you for your generosity and for helping me support the animals that bring so much joy into our lives. Together, we can make a difference—one step (and wag) at a time.

Here’s to running, rescuing, and maybe adopting a dog or two along the way!

With love and a wagging tail,

Thank you to my Sponsors
