Story

I am taking on this Mighty Hike challenge with my younger brother Matt. We are walking a marathon in one day - yes 26 miles!! Are we mad? Crazy? Or pure insane? You choose!! Haha

We have decided to do this challenge in memory of our loved ones who are sadly not with us any more, but also to celebrate those of whom have survived to tell the tale.

In May 2005 our Grandpa sadly died from stomach Cancer of and from diagnosis to his last day with us was only 6 weeks, such a shock to all of us.

When Jo was 11 her Step Mum was dignosed with breast cancer. Sadly she could no longer fight it and passed away in 2001.

A few years ago our Uncle Lloyd was diagnosed with Testicular cancer, luckily it was caught in time and is still with us, but unfortunately still battling and living through the repercussions of it. He is currently on the waiting list for another operation.


This horrible disease has affected our family as im sure it has many of yours too, but now we can do this together and help fight this horrible thing. Please if you can only spare £1 that would be amazing. Help us to make a difference


If anything this past year with Covid has taught us that we need to push ourselves and achieve oir goals and ambitions, so here we are making the most of life while we still can.


We have crated a facebook page so you can follow our training progress and follow our journey on the day itself. So like our page to follow what we are up to and how we are getting on.


Lets do this !!!
