Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Back in September 2017 I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer, for the second time.  Whilst waiting for the various tests to be carried out my local Maggie's centre in Edinburgh was my first port of call.  Since that first visit they have continued to provide invaluable support, guidance, tea, biscuits, and humour.  And I know that they will continue to provide all of that for as long as I need, and beyond.

In addition to having had breast cancer, twice, I'm also a keen runner.  Not club level, just running for myself and my health.  Last year, whilst waiting for my diagnosis, I took part in the 2017 Scottish 10k.  It's a pancake-flat course along the East Lothian coast line.  I've signed up to do it again this year, and this time I'll be raising funds for Maggie's.

Do you know that it costs £2400 to run a Maggie's Centre for a day?  Do you know that Maggie's funding comes almost entirely from voluntary donations?

This is where you come in...  please donate as much or as little as you can to Maggie's and support me in my training and on race day too.

In addition, you can also follow my training updates, news and general ramblings over on my blog: runforyourlife178314555.wordpress.com
