My story

 

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

This is the 4th year in a row I've entered the Highland Cross, you might say I'm some what of a slow learner!!  So, on the 20th June I'll find myself on the start line wondering why I entered yet again!

For those who don't know, the Highland Cross is a 50 mile duathalon (20 miles running/walking and 30 miles cycling) which starts in Kintail on the west coast of Scotland and ends in Beauly, just outside Inverness.  The course takes me across Glen Affric and Strathglass, through some of the best scenery in the Highlands, although speaking from experience I'm not normally is a state to enjoy it!!!

Last year I completed the event in 5 hours 43 minutes, coming in 290th out of a field of 676.  I raised approx £1700 for the charity, this year I hope to do better in both!

This year I know we are all watching our pennies, however, it's even more important than ever to support charities and any donation which you can give, large or small, is gratefully recieved and will be put to good use.

For more info please see www.highlandcross.co.uk

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Highland Cross gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
