Story

So what am I doing this year? Well in the words of syndrome from the Incredibles (those of you with kids will know the line) "it’s bigger its bader ......" may be madder would be best. I am going to be doing an escape. This time it is getting DANGEROUS!  We are talking chains, handcuffs, more than ever before, we are talking 2 big locks to get past - one "normal" that I will be able to see and one combination lock - I WONT be able to see! And to make it all the more challenging - I will be doing this locked in a "tank" of water.

This will happen on the 27th October so it’s going to be cold water as well! I will be posting pictures to show you the device I am building in the next week.

I will also be posting my training for the even as well over the coming month.

Be under no illusion - this is a huge task and I will beat it! just like I am beating my feet ... with the help of STEPS and the MANY (far too many friends) I have who are adults with problems as a result of club foot - most have had pretty major surgery in their time! That is why STEPS is so important to help and advise new parents as to the best route for treatment and also to help with research into causes and treatments etc. SO PLEASE sponsor just a few pounds if you can afford it. Just email me and tell me you are mad if you can’t.

All the best Dave
