Story
My rugby mad family and myself have decided to try and raise money for The Doddie Weir'5 Trust. We are going to the Scotland v Italy game in Rome on the 17th March. After watching Doddie walk out at Murrayfield with his boys at the All Blacks game we decided to see if we could do something to help. I also recently lost a good friend and colleague to MND so this will be in his memory. We intend to walk the distance to Rome from Edinburgh (3000km) in 60 days. We will be doing this on our Fitbits and recording our daily milage which needs to exceed 50km per day. Our intention is to rasie as much money as we can before the 17th of March. Please if you can however large or small donate some money to help support Doddies Trust.

6 years agoThe team is now well rested after the exploits of the last 60 odd days and are keen to close off the fund raising on a high. Once more i am asking you to share the page and encourage anyone you know to give whatever amount they can. You will have seen the huge amount of awareness Doddie has raised for MND over the last few months and as a team we are determined to do as much as we can to help. I have worn out two pairs of trainers and one dog in this process and we are still hoping to raise £3000. Its the teamwork that makes the dreams work!!!!

6 years agoWow what a finish to this walk. Walking with over 5000 other Scotland supporters in kilts and bagpipes playing was a fitting and emotional way to finish this challenge. My family has been over whelmed by all the donations and support we have had and over the next two to three weeks we will be donating the money to MyName5Doddie to help MND charities. It has been great watching how committed all the team have been to this cause over the 60 days. It was the teamwork that made the dream work. Please keep sharing. Thanks
