Story

This February, myself and my friends Scott and Chris will be running the Brecon to Cardiff 70k ultramarathon as extreme ironers. 

This not only entails running an ultra with a full kit but also carrying a 1 meter ironing board, an iron and clothing to iron. We will be setting off 15 mins behind everyone else and so as not to get in the way of other runners, but with the same cut off times. 

I’ve not done a charity event in a while and wanted to raise money for a fantastic charity ‘ wish upon a star’ this charity is helping families with terminally ill children to fulfil a wish. 

There is no guarantee that we will complete this course, but we will not give up easily! Feel free to come and cheer us on, your support as always is greatly revived. 

Thank you for taking the time to read this. And hopefully making a donation no matter how small. 

Gareth, Scott and Christian.
