After the ordeal that was the 2010 Paris marathon (for me anyway!) it has taken something a little different for me to re-don my running trainers.  That something is 'Tough Mudder'!  Follow this link to find out more: http://toughmudder.co.uk/about.  I'll be partaking on 22 September and in summary, Tough Mudder is described as a 10-12 mile obstacle course in Brecon Beacons designed by Special Forces to test your all around strength, stamina, determination, and camaraderie. 

Obstacles include the 'arctic enema', 'dong dangler', and 'fire walker'.  A personal favourite I look forward to is the 'electroshock therapy'.... For anyone interested more detail can be found at the following link http://toughmudder.co.uk/obstacles/.  I'm actually looking forward to the experience!

My Gran passed away recently with her death being linked to cancer.  Because of our recent loss and because there are so many people directly and indirectly impacted by cancer every day I thought Cancer Research would be a worthy and very noble cause for my moment of madness.
