Last Thursday I told you about Robyn Hadley, whose brother Skyler tragically died in a motorbike accident in May. The day before yesterday, Robyn took the place Skyler had booked for himself in the Great North Run and ran in her brother’s memory.
Â
Robyn did so well on Sunday, beating her personal target of 2:15 and completing the run in 2:09. She asked me to send a message of thanks to everyone who supported her and wrote such heartfelt messages of support.
Â
“I am completely overwhelmed by the support and the lovely messages from so many people who I haven’t met. I have read every single message and I wish I could say thank you to everyone personallyâ€.Â
Â
We’re sure her big brother would be proud of her. We certainly are – what Robyn has done is incredible. Â
Â
If you didn’t get the chance to sponsor Robyn beforehand but would still like to then please visit her justgiving page.Â
Â
On behalf of Robyn and from everyone at The National Autistic Society, thank you for your support.
Â
With kind regards,
Â
