As some of you know, a while ago I signed up to run the Edinburgh Marathon this May. For a while I was debating whether it would be a good idea to use this opportunity to raise some money for a charity. Last night while scrolling through my phone, I saw a person saying that women in the past have marched for us and that today she runs for other women too. This made me realise how fortunate I have been and that it is my duty to stand up for others. With so much violence and discrimination towards women everyday - we cannot stay silent. This May, I will be running to raise awareness to injustices that are happening to Women across the globe. I will also be raising funds for my local charity - Shetland Women's Aid - who support women here at home, and give them a chance for a better future. If you are able - please donate, if you can't donate - please share.

Just a disclaimer for those who have not been following me on this running journey, I have never run at such distance and I run veeeeery slowly, so the main goal is just to complete the distance within the time limit.

Also, all the funds raised will be donated to chosen charity whether I'm able to complete the race or not.

All the best,

Cami
