Many thanks for taking the time to visit my fundraising page.
I'm raising money for Zoe's Place Baby Hospice www.zoesplaceliverpool.org by taking on the Bob Graham Round.
The challenge is to complete a non stop traverse of 42 summits, taking in 28,500ft of ascent and descent over a distance of 72 miles. This roughly equates to running from Liverpool to Leeds, and climbing Mount Everest along the way. All of this has to be completed in under 24 hours.
The start and finish of the challenge is Moot Hall in Keswick, and I will be setting off from there at 19:00 on Saturday 26th June 2010. As part of the challenge I will have a support team who will provide me with a change of clothes at designated points along the route, act as pacers for individual legs, witness that I visit all summits for official ratification, supply me with food and drink throughout the challenge, and generally provide the much needed encouragement that I will need if I am to complete the couse in under 24 hours. Any kind donations to this challenge will be for all members of the team, to whom I am extremely grateful to for their support.
I would urge you to visit the Zoe's Place webpage so that you can gain an appreciation of how the charity operates, and also obtain an understanding of how this worthy charity benefits so many lives.
For an update on how my training is going, please follow the link http://www.montane.co.uk/blog/current which will direct you to Montane outdoors equipments blog site.
All that remains is for me to thank you once again for taking the time out to visit this webage. Any donations toward my fundraising are much appreciated.
Thank you.
