Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I didn't want to set up this page before the event as there were so many factors involved on the day that the possibility of not being successful was very real. There were enough pressures on the day and I didn't want to add to it to be honest. However not one to miss the chance of raising some money for a very good cause I decided that if I did complete it I would set up this page retrospectively and as some of you were asking here it is . . . :-)

The Bob Graham round is a massive challenge of 72 miles over 42 peaks in the Lake District within 24 hours. This is even more of a challenge to a type 1 diabetic like myself. 

I had an amazing team of helpers and was very fortunate with the weather. Hopefully I have demonstrated that with good teamwork anything is possible and having such a medical condition should not stop you from achieving your life's ambitions.
