Episode Details

Twins Thomas and Harry Derricott, both 24 and living with Down’s syndrome, are set to conquer the Great Manchester Run — not just for personal triumph, but to raise over $18,000 for Down’s Syndrome Manchester, the charity that’s been their rock since childhood. Joining them are nine other young adults with Down’s syndrome and 30 friends and family, turning this 10K into a powerful community celebration. Thomas, a returning runner, and Harry, tackling his first 10K, have trained hard with gym sessions and weekly Park Runs — even battling the heat. Their mom beams with pride, and Thomas’s girlfriend Maddi is running alongside them, while Harry’s training partner is also part of the crew. Inspired by a friend’s success, Harry’s stepping up this year with high school buddies and the Down’s Syndrome Manchester team. After crossing the finish line, they’ll toast to their grit with a Nando’s feast and prosecco — proof that determination, love, and community can turn any challenge into a victory.
