Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Carlos came up with idea, Nigel ran with it. Carlos organised it and the rest of us, well we just started to train! What we are doing.........the difficult bit.......all we need you to do is sponsor us!

The team:

Carlos - Team Capt - Capt in the HAC (still serving)

Nigel - Sgt London Scottish (still serving)

Chris - Reired Officer (Royal Signals)

Jeremy - L/Cpl 4 Para (still serving)

Paul - L/Sgt HAC (still serving)

Andy - Ex Para Reg

We are doing an event called Arch to Arc - we run from Marble Arch to Dover, we then swim to Calais then cycle to the Arc de Triomphe http://www.enduroman.com/a2achallengers.html we are going for the world record! Lets hope the team after don't beat us as that record could be very short lived. The current record stands at 63hrs and 26mins. It is going to be tough, however we will get through it and achieve our goal!

 

We are raising money for Help for Heroes as we have all served or are still serving in either the British Army or the Royal Marines. We have all have friends who have not made it home from operations or have been injured so to do an event like is very close to our hearts.

We will be dedicating our our efforts to the memory Tom Keogh a former colleague who was sadly killed in Afghanistan in March 2010.

 

We all instruct for British Military Fitness and all enjoy taking our classes - this challenge adds a little more spice to our already great job and a little bit more to your classes while we are in training.

We ask you to dig deep, please come and support, could be a good weekend in Paris for you when we finish!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity. So you know 10p in every £1 you donate is going towards the cost of the event. However BMF have offered to help with this if we do not raise enough funds, however we hope this will not be a problem!

Finally, THANK YOU for your support!
