Story

Watching my mother die was one of the hardest experiences of my life. As it approaches the one year anniversary of her death I would like to raise some funds in her memory.

The chosen charity is the Southern Area Hospice where she spent the last weeks of her life. I was amazed about how they ensured the dignity of the individuals while accommodating the relatives’ wishes. Surviving solely on donations, the quality of service was amazing.

I hope that you or I will never need their service but just in case…

Please sponsor me as I go through hell running the Edinburgh Marathon in May - hopefully in under 4 hours. Training has already started with 6 months of no drinking or smoking. It’s tough at the moment, with training some days in -18 degrees through 30cm of snow.

So come on dig-deep and sponsor me, and make the run worthwhile!!!
