Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Scottish Outdoor Education Centres provides valuable opportunities for young people to attend residential outdoor learning programmes that help to develop the attitudes and skills required for a happy and successful life.

I am running the Edinburgh Marathon this year to raise money for a bursary fund that will support young people who would not be able to access SOEC programmes without additional financial support.

Whilst I have done some pretty long runs in my life, I have never run in an actual marathon event and unlike my other long runs, I am setting myself the ambitious target of completing the course in less than 4 hours, whilst also hopefully raising more than £4000 for SOEC.
