We have partnered with Glasgow Children's Hospital Charity to raise £96,000 for a new state-of-the-art Fetal Cardiology Ultrasound Scanner to help care for unborn babies from across Scotland.

Story

The official London Marathon has been cancelled, so now I am replacing it with a Virtual Marathon in our home city of Glasgow to raise money for the Barclay's Scotland Fundraising to buy a Fetal Ultrasound Scanner.  The run will be taking place on 4th October which was the planned date of 4th October 2020 and will be part of an official Virtual London Marathon that is taking place all over the world.

Along the route I am planning to take 26 selfies of landmarks around our amazing home city (one for each mile of the race, we haven't worked out what to do for the last 0,2 of a mile.  That might be a photo of the sky with 20% of a landmark on it when I recover at the end of the run.

Any contributions would be greatly appreciated.
