I've had the good fortune to be able to see the incredible work done by Glasgow Samaritans 24 hours a day, seven days a week, every day of every year since 1960.

Their unpaid volunteers are there to listen when people are in crisis and struggling to cope. I hope you will be able to support their efforts. 

I will be running the Loch Ness Marathon on October 6, 2019. At 57, and fighting a bitter battle against middle-aged spread, I know this is gonna hurt. But, with a bit of luck and a following wind, I should finish just ahead of the sweeper-up bus.
