Dumbarton & District MS Society - Half Marathon

In October, as I lace up my running shoes for the AJ Bell Great Scottish Run, half marathon, every stride will be a tribute to my amazing mum. She lived with MS, a challenging condition that she faced with incredible strength and resilience. We lost her in January 2022, and not a day goes by that we don't think of her.

This isn't my first time running for the MS Society. Back in June 2020, my brother, Richard and I committed to running 5k every single day for the entire month. It was an immense challenge, but with the incredible support of our community, we raised just under £4,000. It was an honour to contribute to a cause that meant so much to us.

Now, I'm running again, driven by an even deeper personal connection. This half marathon is more than just a physical challenge; it's a way to honour Mum's memory and continue the fight against MS. Every pound raised will go directly to the Dumbarton & District MS Society, funding vital local support & to allow the group to continue their outstanding work.

Join me in turning grief into action and hope into progress. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of countless individuals and families affected by MS. Thank you for your support.
