My story

Following the success of the Snodonia Marathon this October, the next challenge is the Snowdon Race - Râs Y Wyddfa, this time we go up and down as fast as possible.  10 miles in all on the Llanberis path.  The challenge is to beat the cut off at the top which means getting up in around 50mins.

The race is on 20th July, so plenty of time to practice...

I ran my first ever Marathon at the end of October in a time of 4:12.  Not just any old marathon, but the Snowdonia Marathon, a gruelling 26.2miles of hills and valleys, (with fantastic views of course!)

You can help by donating towards the Umeed Partnership to spur me onwards!!
