I started running in 2011, running my first Marathon (Loch Ness) in 2012 in memory of my Mother in Law, Ishbel, and in supportof family and friends fighting and surviving cancer (my step dad Drew, Nephew Kevin, Niece Wendy, friend Karen). I raised £1,244 for Macmillan and just under £400 for Highland Hospice at that time. 

Highland Hospice is raising funds to build a new Hospice. This is where Hugh's Mum and Uncle were cared for in their last weeks.  In 2015, I celebrate my Silver Wedding in March and  50th Birthday in October. I've decided to enter a crazy (crazier than usual!) number of running and cycling events to help make it a memorable year, and I want to put my efforts to good cause by helping them reach their fundraising target! This is where I hope you can help by donating. No donationis too small, every donation is greatly appreciated and can help towards mytarget.

Hopefully the donations will too😍

*When I got confirmed entry into the West Highland Way 95 Mile Race I decided to keep my page open. Hopefully some of my friends might think running this distance over some pretty hilly tough terrain might be worthy of a wee donation. Thanks in advance for all your support 😘
