Without doubt the Royal Marine Commandos changed my life and I want to give something back, from being an over weight teenager to losing over 6 stone and managing to build up the fitness levels to high enough standard to join such an elite force will leave me forever proud.

I have always been told 'Once A Marine, Always A Marine' and with that being said I want to be able to continue my support for the Corps even after service. Personally I didn't serve in combat operations but there are many that did and many that have seriously been affected by the outcomes, not only the personnel that went over seas but the family's back at home and this is where this charity comes to help.

Me and other members of Sui Generis Gym will be taking on the Full Tough Mudder to show support to this charity and a local charity (Wiltshire Air Ambulance). The Tough Mudder itself seems like the perfect challenge for a former 'Bootneck' so wish me luck!

Please show your support to such a great a cause by making a donation (big or small as it all adds up) and share to your family and friends.
