We did it, Dad. 💙 10 miles, countless memories, and a finish line that meant more than any medal ever could. Thank you to everyone who supported us, donated, cheered us on and helped us raise money for Dad's chosen charity. This one was for him. 🙌 🔗 New blog and video now live here: https://cmls.world/2026/10/21/we-did-it-dad/ #WeDidItDad #GreatSouthRun #RunForDad #RunForGrandad #PhyllisTuckwell #MyWorld #PUP
Last year I ran the Great South Run for Betsy. This year I'm doing it for Dad. If you've followed #MyWorld for a while, you'll know that running and challenge events have become my way of creating positive change from difficult situations. Last year every mile was for #RunForBoo. This year, every mile will be in memory of someone who meant the world to me - my Dad.

I DID IT! 🎉 On 19 October, I ran the Great South Run in 2hr 7mins - through rain, hail, and every emotion possible. This wasn’t just a run, it was for Boo and a mission to raise awareness for Coeliac UK. Medal earned, T-shirt worn, and heart full of gratitude. 💙 Read the full story here 👉 https://cmls.world/2025/11/20/the-great-south-run-why-it-mattered-so-much/
