It’s the final countdown! Two weeks today I will be up in the hills putting my body through the ultimate test. 100km non stop hiking in some of the toughest conditions. Scorching heat, pi***ng down rain, with climbs of up to 450m at some points! Fatigue kicks in, mental and physical ability and agility are all tested!
Pain running up through your feet into your legs, through your knees into your hips and spine as you get into the latter stages! It’s a case of mind over matter to see you through to the end.
Imagine having hiked 80km (50miles), been moving for almost 18 hours then having to climb to heights of 350m up rock and undulated terrain, smashing your feet and muscles to pieces because they’re already like concrete!
Why am I doing this you may ask! I’m doing it to raise money for the British Heart Foundation, to support the amazing work this charity undertake, and raise awareness of the support they can provide when it’s really needed.
I need you all to help me, and get behind me, by showing your support to get me through to the end.
I am always the first to give generously and support charities, local businesses, fundraisers, local sports teams, clubs, and much more!
Please show your support for me. On the day I will be keeping people posted of my progress and documenting the torture I will be enduring.
Thankyou and much love xx
