Glasgow half Marathon & The west Highland Way · 5 September 2009

We believe that no life should be half lived. 1 in 5 people in Scotland are struggling with a chest, heart or stroke condition. We won't live with that. Join us to support people to live life to the full. #NoLifeHalfLived

Story

In an attempt to raise money for Chest Heart & Stroke Scotland I will be running the Glasgow half marathon on Sunday the 6th of September (13.5miles) then 4 days later I will be embarking on the West Highland Way (95mile walk from just outside Glasgow, through the hills & valleys of the west of Scotland to the foot of Ben Nevis). Don’t know what I was thinking!!! But there’s no going back now! :o)

My best friend lost her Dad to a stroke and her mum is currently in a home having had a severe stroke a few years ago. Another close friend lost her Dad due to a heart attack last year, 10 weeks before she got married. My brother’s sister in law has been disabled since her early 30's due to a serious of strokes. No one is invincible. It could happen to any of us at any time.

I would really appreciate your help and support to raise as much money as I can.

- Coronary heart disease is Scotland's biggest Killer.

- Stroke is the main cause of disability in the community.

- Chest illness of various kinds are the biggest single reason people use the health service.

 

Please give generously.

Thanks
