Beat The Bulge For BUILD is a sponsored weight loss programme which began on Valentines Day 2010 and runs to 29th September 2010.

This will benefit not only my health, but improve the lifestyles of the hundreds of people wiuth learning difficulties, and other disabilities, who use the wide range of activies and services provided by Norfolk charity BUILD.  www.buildnorwich.org.uk

The Project is being called The 43 Challenge as I am looking to lose 43 lbs, one pound for every year of BUILD's history, by my 43rd birthday in September 2010. Follow my regular update on http://43challenge.blogspot.com

That's just over 3 stone - so a hell of a challenge to someone who loves his real ale, cheese and regards himslef as a "retired" sportsman.
