The couple setting the pace for MND

Talk about couple goals. Former marathon runner, David Baker, and his wife Alice will be setting the pace at this year's Great South Run.

Mr Baker was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (MND) in 2023, but has continued to take part in races with the help of his wife Alice.

He is now set to become the first ever wheelchair-using pace setter at the event in Portsmouth on 19 October.
