Story

As many of you know I have done a few daft things to raise money for charity over the past years and skydiving will remain my favourite but falling with style doesn't require much effort so...

This challenge is requires slightly more effort, commencing on the 5th of March at 0400 I will run 4 miles every 4 hours for 48 hours which means in 2 days I will run almost 2 marathons.

Last year Kinghorn RNLI crew's were paged nearly 100 times making it one of busiest years in a while. As operational crew it means that we need to drop everything when the pagers go off and sadly I miss some work meetings (all sarcasm intended).

Too many people are still drowning. More than ever we need the RNLI’s help. As a charity, the RNLI depends on our donations so it can go on saving lives and keeping us and our loved ones safe. RNLI lifesavers are our lifeline. They’re the lifeboat crews who provide 24-hour search and rescue right around the UK and Ireland. The lifeguards keeping watch on 240 of the busiest beaches in the UK and Channel Islands. And the RNLI safety teams and educators working tirelessly to stop people getting into trouble in the first place.Thank you.
