Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Diabetes has affected so many of my friends and family. In particular my Mum, Auntie and Gran McMillan who passed away due to the side effects of Diabetes. 

Diabetes is a very common dysfunctional illness that so many people live with. However as it’s an unseen illness you may be unaware the person next to you has it or how affects them on their walk in life. 

I am always asked the same question why would I want to run a 100 mile race? Initially this was for my own personal goals and aspirations. To raise the bar to an extreme level, to confront what is physically and mentally possible, to push that mind game as far as I can. As my training has come to a peak Its become apparent I should push these boundaries not only for myself but for a purpose. 

I have a love for the sport and how it builds not only physical and mental endurance but also resilience. I know that it will eventually get very hard but the memories of friends and family alongside everyone’s support will push me through to the finish line.

Thank you again, 

Aaron
