Three-year-old Longbenton lad Harry Watson completed the Mini Great North Run at the weekend for a heart-breaking cause - his Uncle Joshy has incurable cancer.
Harry and dad Mark took part in the 1.5km race along the Quayside in aid of the charity Myeloma UK. Myeloma UK is very close to their hearts because Harry's uncle Josh Addison, 27, was diagnosed with the illness - for which there is no cure - shortly before his nephew was born.
Harry has now raised more than £500 and speaking to ChronicleLive with his mum Rebecca, said he had loved the run. "I did my race. I was running on Saturday for my uncle," he said.
