I am a Welshman who is approaching 40 and a mid-life crisis. So what better way to celebrate this fact than sign up for the Kilimanjaro Hiking Challenge 2013 in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support?

I am hoping to raise at least £5,000.00 in sponsorship over the next 12 months and this will be my personal story of how I am hopefully transformed from an overweight couch potato to someone who can reach the highest peak in Africa.

I will of course be keeping everyone updated on my blog - www.alittlehighalittlelow.com
