Great Scottish Run Half Marathon 2023

This October, I'll be running the Great Scottish Run Half Marathon to raise funds for SAMH.

Colin was my manager at my previous role prior to my traineeship. He was a brilliant and knowledgeable mentor figure who always took time to not only teach me, but check in during those tough times in lockdown.

A keen runner himself, Colin always encouraged me to go outside for a walk or run and look after my mental health during our Teams catch ups. So, this year I'd like to run in memory of him.

I'd be grateful for any donations to support SAMH to continue to increase the awareness and importance of mental health.

Big shout out to my colleague, Eilidh, who will also be running and raising funds with me as it's a cause close to both of us. At least I'll have a training buddy for those 13.1 miles in October!
