Ziggurat - the annual adventure for folk from the constructions and built environment sector who share a passion for cycling and may not be averse to doing a bit of networking from the saddle.

Story

In August 2023 I am taking on the insane challenge of running 215 miles across Scotland in 100 hours. 

Following this in September 2023 I will need to switch up my training straight away from running to cycling to get training for a circa 300+miles (Getting lost dependent) cycle from London to Roubaix. 

Why am I doing this when I could be relaxing at home? Well I am taking on these challenges to raise money and awareness for the incredible charity Action Medical Research (AMR).

For those that know me know I love a challenge and to push myself, however its quite possible i've bitten off more than I can chew here, knowing the amazing work AMR do to help save childrens lives is what will keep me going through the pain and self doubt. Any support you can give via donations or words of encouragement would be gratefully received from AMR and myself.

Thank you so much!
