Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I was challenged by a friend to take part in Tough Mudder commonly considered to be one of the toughest events on the  planet. Tough Mudder events are hardcore 10-12 mile obstacle courses designed by British Special Forces to test a person's all around strength, stamina, mental grit, and camaraderie. I have attached video of what I will be putting myself through!

I saw this as a challenge, to get fit, as a huge source of achievement and ultimately a lot of fun. I will be running with colleagues as part of a team (how else do you get over a 12 foot wall?). The hope is that we spur each other on and all complete the course which has a notoriously high non-completion rate of around 20%.

Please help me to help others and make this run even more worthwhile by sponsoring me with whatever you can give.
