My name is Carrie. I am 8 years old and I am doing this for Yorkhill Children's Charity. I am training to run the whole mile!

I am doing this for Yorkhill because they help so many people. They looked after me when I had my tonsils taken out. They have helped some of my friends too when they've needed operations, needed to see doctors over and over again and special care that they couldn't get from other hospitals or doctors.

They also organise special trips like a limousine ride around Glasgow at Christmas time to see all the lights. I was lucky to be chosen to go with my friend who was chosen by the charity for this treat.  

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
