Story

I'm a very lucky lad who works in a normal job and gets to have fun, play sports and do whatever I want with my life. Unfortunately those service men and women fighting for my freedom in far off lands are not always as lucky, often returning home severely injured or worse...

We can all do our little bit, and this year this is my very own little bit... I will be getting fitter than I ever dreamed possible. Here is a list of the events I have booked so far (lots more to follow):

March - Thetford Forest Mud & Mayhem 10k - DONE

April - Bungay Half marathon - DONE

May - Shiplake Scramble 1mile Thames Swim + 10k Run DONE
