Run-believable 👏
Football favourite Chris Kamara is taking on this year's AJ Bell Great North Run for Prostate Cancer UK - and he's not running alone.
Joining Kammy on the start line are his son, Jack, and former Goals on Sunday co-host Ben Shephard, completing 'Team Kammy' for the iconic half marathon.
Chris has been a long-time supporter of Prostate Cancer UK, while Ben Shephard knows first-hand the impact prostate cancer can have after seeing his dad affected by the disease.
Chris said: "What I do know is that it's an incredible event with passionate fans packing the streets. I look forward to seeing you all in September and look forward to some 'unbelievable' support."
💙 A massive thank you to Chris, Ben and the other 970 runners taking on the Great North Run in support of Prostate Cancer UK
We'll see you in September!
