On the day, you’ll join thousands of other runners who get to experience a truly uplifting atmosphere as they run through the streets of Edinburgh. You’ll also feel lots of pride when you cross the finishing line, knowing you’ve done something very special to improve the lives of people severely affected by mental illness.
