Story

My son Euan was diagnosed with juvenile psoriatic arthritis in August 2020.  Prior to his symptoms, Euan was a keen athlete often competing in running, swimming and triathlon as well as parkruns.  However since his symptoms started, he has been unable to run.  There are days when he can’t even walk without pain. 

I would like to raise money for The Children’s Chronic Arthritis Association (CCAA) which  is a small non profit charity run by volunteers to provide a support network for children affected by juvenile arthritis and their families. 

For me this is a huge challenge as even though I have been running for a number of years,  I never thought I would ever attempt to  run a marathon.

I would appreciate any donation however small to the cause. Thank you for reading my story and taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
