Ed and I will be taking on our first ever marathon (all 26.2 miles...) in September. It's going to be a physical and mental challenge but we are determined to grit our teeth, get round and finish with a smile (ok, maybe not a smile, but we will finish).  It's something we have both always wanted to try and doing it for a good cause makes it an even more worthwhile challenge. 

We are fundraising for BBOWT because they do an amazing job protecting nature and the environment and promoting education and understanding of just how important the natural world is.  Both of us spend our free time at their nature reserves and we are so lucky to be able to enjoy such beautiful places.  Any money we can raise for them we know will be put to the best use.  BBOWT also hold a special place in both of our hearts, as both of us got engaged to our now wives at BBOWT reserves.

Anything you can spare will be much appreciated, and will spur us on in those last few miles. 

Why Loch Ness? As they say 'If you are going to put yourself through hell, you might as well do it in heaven'

Thank you, Sam and Ed
