People who know me know I love an adventure.
Which is why myself (and a few other like minded people) have signed up to take part in a Banger Car Rally across India.
Over the course of one week in January 2017, we'll drive over 1835 miles in an old Jeep (that's more than likely seen better days) aiming to win as many challenges as we can.
But before we get there, we've individually pledged to raise £1,000 for The Teenage Cancer Trust, which is why I've started this JustGiving Page.
Now I know what you're thinking - sponsoring me to drive a Jeep across a country isn't really a hardship.
So, the way I'm planning to raise money is by completing a series of challenges designed to test my mental and physical strength.
The first one is the Potters Half Marathon on June 12th. Which I completed in 2 hours, 6 minutes and 30 seconds - a new PB!
The second is to complete the Via Ferrata Xtreme -

The Third is, over the course of a weekend, to cycle from Manchester to Stoke-on-Trent, and back again. A nice 82mile round trip.
And I'm looking for suggestions. So if there's something you'd like to challenge me to do, let me know!
Thanks for reading my mini-essay, and thanks in advance for your support.
