This year, like the last few, I have numerous running events in the calender. Edinburgh marathon is this year's charity event and I will be doing this for Cat's Protection. An amazing organisation that many of us, as pet owners and animal lovers, can appreciate. More about them below.

If donating for a marathon isn't really cutting it for you, perhaps you'll reconsider as this event will be important training for my Thames 184 mile attempt in September!
