My story

 
Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. This is a huge event for me --my first marathon but the run is for my friend -  Sandra Pearson.  Sandra loved running and cycling in and around the city and surrounding countryside, and as she is an Edinburgh girl, I though it appropriate to do the Edinburgh marathon for her.  As many of you know, Sandra has been enduring Huntington's - a degenerative genetic disease which has no known cure.
Although research is progressing, many families continue to need extensive support in order to cope with the long term management of this illness.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Scottish Huntington's Association gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement are added to your donation.

Please help me reach the £600 target - so please sponsor me NOW!!!!
Many, many thanks to everyone for donating.
