In 2014 I cycled from Edinburgh to London over four days to raise money for ABS, a difficult challenge and a real test of endurance but cycling is something I have been doing for many years. In complete contrast the 2016 ABS fundraiser will be over in a matter of hours and running is something I have only just started, never did I imagine that I would ever run a marathon.

In preparation for the event in May I will also be running the Kirkintilloch 12.5km (Feb) and the Alloa half marathon (March). On the day I will be part of a team of 100 architects each hoping to raise a minimum of £100.00.

Thanks to everyone who is able to donate.
