This is stage 4 of the 10000 mile challenge raising money for UK Mountain Rescue Teams. Stage four is in support of Llanberis Mountain Rescue Team and I aim to have walked 6000 miles by 7th October 2023, this stage is in Memory of Tim Cooper Team Leader of the Trail Walking Club who sadly passed away in May 23.

Lets give you the context of the 10000 Mile challenge. Over the last few years the Trail Walking Club which I am the team leader raised over £28k for Mountain Rescue in England.

We have raised  this money via multiple charity walks and martial arts seminars. The 2020 event was not possible due to COVID19 restrictions. 

So at the start of the pandemic, I decided to walk every day until I reach 1000 miles and finish on the top of Scafell Pike (England Highest Mountain). I am doing this in aide of Wasdale Mountain Rescue and in memory of my mum and dad who both passed away in Late 2019 and Early 2020 only 70 days apart. 

The 1000 Miles was reached on the 25th December 2020 (Christmas Day) but sadly due to COVID19 restrictions we could not meet the team on top of Scafell Pike. 

So i decided to extend the deadline to September 18th 2021 and Target another 2000 miles and then we kept going and on the 24th September 2022 we summited Hellvelyn at the 4000 mile marker in support of Patterdale MRT and on the 15th April 2023 we summited Cairngorm in support of Skye MRT at the half way point of 5000 miles.

So the aim now is to reach 10000 miles raising money for a different Mountain Rescue Team. So this is Stage 4, the 6000 mile Marker in support of Llanberis Mountain Rescue Team and we will summit Snowdon on 7th October 2023
