Fudgey's 17 for 17
Claire Smith is raising money for poppyscotland
In memory of Rose Lockie
Story
After a tough year last year, I was determined to do something a little special, especially in memory of my mum. I've found it hard to grieve & for me the way to cope is to do something positive & continue to make my Mum proud of the girl she made.
After my 7th London Marathon rejection in October 2016, I had already signed up for the Loch Ness Marathon - Thanks Rachael Welby. This will be my 4th marathon & whilst it's a huge commitment & challenge to run 26.2 miles, it didn't seem enough lol.
Inspired by Iain Opray's 16 for 16 (16 events in 2016) & Life & Lifting's 30 for 30 (30 events for her 30th birthday year), the idea of 17 for 17 started to emerge......read about it on my blog
so far I've completed 16 events.....& the big one is Loch Ness Marathon.
I've chosen to fundraise for Poppy Scotland as my Mum was a big supporter of this charity.
