Months ago, I signed up for the Edinburgh Half Marathon after a particularly good training run. I then came down with a cold. Then I recovered, but the weather was bad. Then ... well, I have no excuses really, but I'm running the 2025 Edinburgh Half Marathon for Scottish Refugee Council this Sunday. I'm under-prepared, but I can do it 💪🏼

Scottish Refugee Council is a great charity – they support thousands of men, women and children as they rebuild their lives in Scotland.

They provide direct support and advice services, promote community integration, stand up for refugee rights and campaign for a fairer, more humane asylum system.

They believe that everyone seeking safety should receive the same warm welcome and respect, no matter where they’re from or how they arrived.

It would be wonderful if you could help me support this awesome organisation.
