Julia, pictured with her dog, Hayley, will run the London Landmarks half-marathon to raise money for bowel cancer research.
Mother’s Day will be particularly poignant for Julia Harrison on Sunday as she prepares to run a half-marathon in memory of her late mum.
The teacher from Arran, who lost her mum through bowel cancer, is raising money for the charity and, in a personal victory, has also lost five stone while in training.
