The Stuart Duncan Memorial 5k Run is an out and back course held on a traffic-free tarmac path (Boblingen Way) in Glenrothes and is organised to support local charities and good causes in Stuart's memory under the auspices of the "Stuart Duncan Forever Running Fund". Rachel House in Kinross is one of the Children's Hospices Across Scotland (CHAS) and acts as a "home from home" for families with children who have life-shortening conditions. It offers short breaks, day visits, hydrotherapy, bereavement support and more, in a beautiful location close to Loch Leven. Rachel House has brought peace to thousands since HRH the Princess Royal performed the opening ceremony in 1996. Now, three decades later, it urgently requires to be upgraded and Margaret and her family have decided that all monies raised at this year's event will be donated to the appeal to raise the funding for this project.
Registration is at The Lomond Centre, Woodside Road, Glenrothes KY7 5RA commencing at 6.00pm. The Centre is five minutes from the start. There is ample parking and toilets available but changing facilities are not likely to be available.
