My story

Well its a surprise I know but I really felt like a challenge in my 30th year!! Help

The date and the mountain loom ahead in the not too distant future. My nerves are on fire. But hey its just a mountain right? Surely anyone can conquer it. Well actually maybe not...about a third of people don't make it to the top. And some people die! Is that enough to make you sponsor me? I hope so. Anything from 2 quid to 200 (yes thats pounds for all you NZers) will help me out greatly.

So instead of twiddling my thumbs and spending too much time in the pubs of London, I've signed up with a trainer and I'm being really hardcore. Yours truly is now a fitness fanatic, immersing myself in an intensive regime of gyming, running, swimming, classes, more running. Military fitness here I come!! Filling my lungs with the best of London's smog to do this.

I will be keeping a training blog for those of you interested at:

Get amongst it guys....see you at the top!!
