Matthew Deeming loves his running. This year he wanted to set his most ambitious goal yet by aiming to run the Northumberland Coastal Path in its entirety from South to North, from Cresswell to Berwick upon Tweed.
The route is around 100km (62 miles) in total and, to the knowledge of himself and the communications officer of the official website, it has never been officially completed in one go before.
He has taken on this challenge on behalf of his friend Ellie, who works tirelessly to make the world a better place. Ellie’s brother James was born with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, and this is why he will be running for Action Duchenne.
In April, Matthew’s broke his shoulder but amazingly he still continued to train with it strapped up.
Matthew will be taking on the Northumberland Coastal Path on Saturday 14th August 2021.
If you would like to be involved in his challenge in any capacity – to cheer him on, run with him for a few miles or provide a hydration/fuel stop – please contact us
