Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Please sponsor me as I put myself through 23 miles of hell, so you don't have to, for children and young people with cancer.

About me:

  • I’m 34 years old
  • I hate running
  • The furthest I’ve ever run was 8 miles; I was 29 at the time and slow…. Let’s call it a walk!
  • I attempted this last year and broke my foot twice in training effectively having a year off training

The challenges:

Reebok Spartan Race - http://www.spartanrace.uk/en/race/detail/1436/overview

Oct 1st, Windsor: The Reebok Spartan Sprint. This is the shortest distance. It is perfect for athletes of all levels; from Spartan first timers to seasoned racers. The 3-5 Mile Sprint may be the shortest distance but it packs more than 20 Signature Spartan Obstacles.

Sept 4th, Peterborough: The Reebok Spartan Super. This is the middle distance course. With a longer distance than the Sprint and more obstacles, the Super will test endurance, perseverance and grit. The 8-10 Mile Super packs more than 25 Signature Spartan Obstacles through tougher and more rugged terrain.

The Grim Original - http://www.grimchallenge.co.uk/

Dec 3rd: The Grim Original
started in 2002 and it’s a gruelling 8 mile run through Aldershot military
proving  ground, on the 3rd of December. Mudd, Rock, Rivers, Snow and Ice. It’s got the lot and its usually between -1 and -5 ⁰C.
