Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I may have taken a break from swimming but I haven't given up all activity or been spending all my time in the pub just yet!

I aim to complete a land-based challenge to climb the three highest mountains of Scotland, England and Wales in 24 hours. Starting at 4pm on Friday 1 September with Ben Nevis (1345m), then heading south for Scafell Pike (978m) in the middle of the night at around 2am Saturday, and finishing at Snowdon (1085m), aiming to complete the final descent before 4pm on Saturday. This involves a total walking distance of 26 miles (42 km) with a total ascent of over 10,000 feet (3,000m). The aim of completing all three climbs within 24 hours includes the travel time to cover over 460 miles by road.

Most of you will know I am like a fish out of water on dry land so this isn't going to be an easy ask!

I will be completing this with several work colleagues from Penguin Random House and I am very proud to be completing this with our team and to be working for a company which produces excellent books and promotes creative responsibility. Ministry of Stories is our corporate charity which helps mentor children and develop their creativity through writing. I hope you will contribute to this charity for my efforts!
