Fraser is running the Edinburgh half Marathon!
Fundraising for Scottish Action for Mental Health
Story
I have decided to run the Edinburgh half marathon to raise money for the Scottish Association for Mental Health. I am trying to better my own mental health by setting myself a new challenge this year to stop myself for feeling sluggish and being more active. What a way to spend my first year wedding anniversary and no Samantha will not be running with me but waiting for me at the finish line.
Please donate anything you can to help this amazing charity and help keep me away from the donuts.
