Story

Hey Gang,

Well I said 'never again' after the last ultramarathon and yet here we are, another ultramarathon around the corner.

This time it's 'The Lap' which is 47 miles on the trails around Lake Windermere. It's hilly, it's trail-y, and I'm consoling myself with the fact that come rain or shine, it will be beautiful. I have been training solidly for the past 15 weeks and I can honestly say it's the most disciplined I've ever had to be. It's been hard not only on me, but for my long-suffering family and friends.

I thought I'd pop a hat around in the event you'd like to sponsor and this time I'm raising money for Medicinema.

If you don't know much about them, I implore you to google them and see the wonderful work they do but simply put, they provide cinema experiences inside hospitals to support the emotional, physical and mental health of NHS patients. What could be kinder than that?!

Lots of Love, TIA, TTFN
