I’m running the Edinburgh Marathon this year to mark 10 years since my first marathon (in Edinburgh). 

As some of you will know I was diagnosed with MS at the age of 21. After a tough first year, I was thankfully well and ran a few marathons until a relapse in 2016 which saw me stop running and become suddenly less active. I attempted a marathon in 2018 but it was too soon and I had to walk a lot of it. 

Now, 2 kids later I’m coming back and ready to try again! I’ve trained hard around a full time job and 2 small children, I’ve lost a couple of toenails and even face planted the pavement in my efforts….! 

I’d love to raise as much as possible for this great charity who dedicate themselves to research and supporting not only those with MS but those that care for them too. 

If you’d like to help me raise some money for them I’d be so grateful for all the incentive to cross that finish line.
