Hi, at the end of March I'm running my first ever race- the 2026 Kilomathon Scotland 13.1k.

I'm doing this to raise funds to help send Thistle Robotics, a local high school robotics team, to the World Championships of the VEX Robotics competition.

They achieved something incredible by winning the THINK AWARD for outstanding coding, earning them a place at the World Championships in St Louis Missouri this April.

Now they’re ready to represent Scotland.

However, as a small, self-funded school club, they need help raising the £14,000 to get them there. The race is on to raise the money in time!

Every penny counts! Every donation to this Go Fund Me link makes an absolutely vital contribution to their cause.
