I can't quite believe I'm saying this, but I've shared it now, so I'm committed! I've taken the plunge and have signed up to run the Scottish 10K on the 18th of August in Musselburgh.

I'm running to raise money for Edinburgh Children's Hospital Charity (ECHC), our Charity Partner at Edinburgh Airport.

This is my first ever running event and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't terrified! But knowing that every step I take will contribute to the incredible work of ECHC makes it all the more worthwhile.

ECHC is dedicated to providing children and their families with the extra support they need when facing a life-changing hospital stay. I'm deeply inspired by their mission and motivated to do my part in ensuring they can continue their vital work.

I would be extremely grateful for any support you can offer, whether it's through donations, or spreading the word.

The training starts today. Together, let's make a difference in the lives of these brave children and their families.
