I've never run a Marathon before, or even anything more than a run for the bus or a desperate sprint to the greggs counter to grab the last sausage roll before anyone else, and so although 10km may not seem like a lot to many people, it seems like pretty far to me.

But I'm determined to do it, if only because it gives me the opportunity to raise some money for Edinburgh Women's Aid who are an absolutely amazing organisation dedicated to raising awareness of domestic violence and giving support to those in abusive situations.

I'd be so so grateful if you could take a second of your time to donate a quid or two to this amazing cause. And in return I can promise you that there is quite a high possibility that I'll fall down Arthurs Seat...

Thanks so much for your help and support guys, it means the world to me!
