Story

Cancer has affected my immediate family and circle of friends, so I would like to do something to help the fight against it.

The challenge is called TrekFest The Beacons, and takes place on June 4/5/6. I have signed up for the full monty 100 km.

During the weekend I will walk the 100 km course and my goal is to complete it in under 24 hours.

I suspect that I have massively underestimated the challenge and I have a lot to learn about hill walking and long distance trekking, so I would be very grateful if you could provide me with some pressure to complete the course by sponsoring me.
