We have a fab team of runners for this year's Chester Half Marathon! Chester Marathon, Half, 10K & Tri .marathon.half.10k.tri

First up we have Steve, who is actually completing the Chester Triple this year for the Extra Mile Appeal:

'I'm running to raise money for the Countess Charity as over the last two years, the hospital has provided great care and support for both my parents who have had their own individual cancer battles to cope with. This year I really wanted to give something back to the hospital and since I love running so much, signing up for 5 marathons/ultras felt like the right thing to do!'

He has managed to get PB's in both the Chester 10k and the Manchester Marathon so far this year! Amazing 😀
