Story

8 March 2023 would have been Ben’s 21st. In the lead up to that and a little beyond Su and I are doing 21 challenges (most of which will be 21km+) in 21 months. 

Starting 23 February 2022 (Ben’s 10th anniversary) through to 14 October 2023 at the 10th and final Mells 10k. No running involved thankfully but lots of walking, some cycling and maybe even a swim! Planned so far are Snowdon, Scafell Pike and of course BEN Nevis. Walks with Ultra Challenge including Isle of Wight, London to Brighton, Jurassic Coast, Lake District, Yorkshire, Peak District, South Coast, South West, Cotswold Way, Thames Path.

We would also like to do Hadrian’s Wall, Pennine Way and a Coast to Coast. As ever we will be raising money for Young Lives versus Cancer (formerly CLIC Sargent).

If anyone has any other sensible ideas for us we would appreciate your input and of course if anyone wants to join us on any of these you are more than welcome 🤗
