RUNNERS training for the Simplyhealth Great Manchester Run were joined by a special guest this week.
Inspirational runner Dawn Nisbet took part in a training run with staff and students from Manchester Metropolitan University, who will form the Orange Army taking on Manchester’s greatest run on Sunday, 28 May.
Dawn hit the headlines late last year when a picture of her joyously celebrating during her 5k run went viral on social media.
Dawn will be joining University runners for the Simplyhealth Great Manchester Run 10K this May and says she is “super excited” to be part of it and to help inspire people at the University who may doubt their ability to get into running.
As part of Dawn’s mission to inspire other non-runners, she joined one of the University’s regular jogging clubs where she was on hand to pass on her advice to some of those who will be lining up for the university team in May.
