Firstly, I do think this is a lot of fun but I’m not doing the following for that reason alone. For anyone interested in the other big reason, click this link to read about an incredible member of my family: http://alrighttit.blogspot.co.uk/p/about.html

It turns out I quite like this challenge business, so in 2015 I'm going bigger and better. From now until September (and this is just a preliminary list, mind. It's highly likely I'll get roped into more) I'm running more than 100 miles over 19 events through mud, barbed or electrified wire, ice and fire… and that’s just the start.

So please, spare a couple of quid for a great cause and in memory of such an incredible woman.
Thanks ever so much
