Here is the deal. A friend of mine (Jo H.) couldn't do this event so she took it upon herself to coax me into replacing her. I had never heard of the Archie Foundation before, but after checking them out I can see it is a great charity and well worth a donation, so here I am. The money that is raised goes towards supporting kid hospitals in the North of Scotland including the Royal Aberdeen Children's Hospital.

As an additional pitch for your funding, I am running a marathon on Sunday 14th April and I am gonna do that for free so please sponsor me for this 10k. Cheers ears :)
