Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In October 2022 I ran the London marathon. I remember crossing the finish line and thinking I’m never doing that again! However as my official time came through my husband mentioned that I had possibly run a Boston Qualifying time. I didn’t really know anything about this but this did pique my interest and I did indeed have a time that was good enough for me to apply for Boston. Roll on a year and in October 2023 I was successful in gaining a place, and on 15th April 2024 I will be running the Boston marathon!

I have chosen to raise money for the Edinburgh Children’s Hospital Charity as I have been a nurse at the hospital for over 22 years and this charity is very close to my heart. I have seen first hand how the charity has helped so many children and families over the years and just how important their work is. It is an absolute pleasure to have the opportunity to raise funds for them. Any donation no matter how big or small would be hugely appreciated.
