Story

On the 26th May my cousin Chloe and I are running the Edinburgh half marathon in aid of Glasgow Children's Hospital Charity . This is a huge challenge for me as I have never been confident in my ability to run long distances.

In 2007, my sister Sophie passed away and she would have been 18 this year. In honour of her eighteenth birthday, I wanted to set myself a challenge in her memory and raise money for a fantastic cause. Glasgow Children's Hospital Charity provided Sophie and my family with so much support through a difficult time and helped make her short life as special and comfortable as possible.

Thank you!
