EAC Robertson Trophy Handicap 2016

A number of the Edinburgh Athletic Club endurance squad are doing Spring marathons. We aim to run well and remember our club mate, Andy Laird who recently took his own life leaving his wife, Pam and daughter, Honor. Andy was a great supporter of EAC and a genuine, nice guy. He helped at many events, ran well for the club and consistently tried to win club events. We will miss his dry wit, effort and contribution.This will be a one-off legacy going to  SAMH, a charity which does great work on suicide prevention. While the suicide rate in Scotland has fallen in recent years, it remains tragically high and men over 45, like Andy, are one the highest risk groups.We have asked that all cash raised be specifically targeted at SAMH’s work on suicide prevention to help change this.
