Story

Hiya everyone! 

So I thought it would be an epic idea to run a half marathon for charity. I also expect that the wind and rain will add to the fun...it is Scotland after all! 

We all know people who have been directly or indirectly affected by cancer. Macmillan Cancer Support provides a service that helps the victims of cancer but also their families. They do so much from providing support to people who have been diagnosed with cancer to providing nurses to care for people in their own homes. I am personally hoping to raise enough to fund nurses to care for someone who wishes to die at home. I hope you'll all agree that these are worthwhile causes! 

Is there a cringeworthy sob story? Maybe. I'm running in memory of my wee granny. For if it wasn't for her I would never have decided to pursue a career in nursing which has given me the chance to help so many people. Gosh that was cheesy. Now get yer pennies oot! Please :)
