Story
I've now been running for 6 years and this year will see me complete my 7th & 8th marathon. Prostate Scotland kicked started my marathon journey in 2009 when they gave me the opportunity to run the Edinburgh marathon.
In 2012, I will be running the Edinburgh Marathon ( May-12) & Loch Ness Marathon (Sept-12) as a Vet (ie 40+ age category)
Respect the marathon for the challenge which it is. Respect yourself and the body you live in.
Prostate Scotland mission to raise awareness of Prostate Cancer & Prostate Diseases amongst men. About 1 in 2 of us men will suffer from an enlargened Prostate and unfortunately about 1 in 12 of us men will develop Prostate cancer. Hopefully by continuing my partnership with Prostate Scotland, we can reduce this statistic. For self-test tool,please click http://www.prostatescotland.org.uk/information/take-the-self-test.html

A big thank you to my 2 Corporate sponsors for 2012, Sweatshop Edinburgh/Glasgow & Bank of Scotland Foundation. And to all of you for your continuing support.
