As a few of my friends and family are aware on the 18th June I will be taking on the massive challenge walking of 500miles for my Grandson Lincoln.

My 3 1/2 year old grandson Lincoln has Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, this devastating muscle waiting condition currently has no cure I want to change that. I hope by doing this walk I will raise awareness and vital funds for research into Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

The route is as follows I will walk from Conway to Cardiff then continue on through Chepstow and back up Offas Dyke to Prestatyn with an absent of 80,000ft. The walk will take me 6 weeks with me having one rest day per week, I will be backpacking the route carrying all my equipment with me.
