Mark's marathon effort for Margaret Kerr Unit
Mark Baxter, who now lives in Tayport, recently handed over a cheque to the Margaret Kerr Unit for £3,200.
His motivation for taking on this gruelling challenge was to give something back to the Margaret Kerr Unit who provided excellent care for his close family friend Ian ‘Frenchie’ Clark and his Mum Rae before they both sadly lost their battles to cancer last March and May, only nine weeks apart.

He would like to say a massive thank you to all the cyclists and runners who managed to keep him going when things began to get tough. Thanks also go to his to his Colin and Eric Robertson for marshalling the journey, Kirsty Inkpen and Duns Golf Club for providing banners and hospitality afterwards, and to everyone who donated money.
