Had an eMail forwarded by DUK Snechie:

Good morning
I have been asked to forward this email from Sara Ling who is Diabetes UK Scotland National Fundraising Manager.
Best wishes - Pat

"We are looking for people to help to cheer on our runners at the Loch Ness marathon and 10k on 29 September. I wondered if you could forward this email to any of your contacts in Inverness to see if they would be able to come along to cheer on our runners.

We have a stand at the finish line at Bught Park and would like to ask people to come along to the stand to collect Diabetes UK branded items ? bang sticks / hairy heads/ balloons and T-shirts and then make their way to any of the cheering points listed below. At any time from 9.30am on Sunday 29th.

We have 120 people running as part of the Sugar Rush team and another 20 plus people running on their own and we?d really like to show our support for all of them for running to raise funds for the charity.

We will also have a stand at the finish line and we?d be delighted if anybody would be able to help us to man the stand on the day.

Thanks for your help with this ? hopefully we?ll see you on 29th!

Many thanks
Sara"
