    Marathon

    Just a huge congratulations for my fiancée who ran the Loch Ness marathon this past sunday and almost made her personal best time, despite running with a cold.

    Well done, Fiona. I'm so proud of you!

    I've heard of walking on water, but running on Loch Ness!.

    Seriously, well done her.
    If you are going to do it, do it in a kilt!
