Story

On the 8th August 2022 my beautiful daughter was born. On the same day, after being a great granny (for the second time) for only 3 hours my Gran passed away after battling from Alzheimer's for over 12 years. 

I wanted to do something to remember her and to raise money to battle this horrible disease. In my sleep deprived state I've decided to sign up to the Edinburgh Half Marathon, a distance I've never quite managed to conquer. So while it'll be a major challenge, especially with a new born it'll be totally worth it to try raise money for Alzheimer's Society.
