Another year another ridiculous challenge. This time it's trying to break the Guinness World record for the fastest marathon dressed as a Fisherman. When...April 23rd, Why? Apparently my secret passion is getting blisters but it's also to raise money for an amazing charity. My uniform for the day is waders, a wide brimmed fishing hat, rubber wellies plus carrying a 3 kilo tackle box. On my first outing someone shouted, "Captain Pugwash you're lost" so it should be entertaining and based on the amount I sweated it will probably look like I've been at sea through a force 10 gale. 

I'm raising funds for the Shipwrecked Mariners Society who since 1839, have provided financial assistance to fishermen and mariners and their dependants who have suffered hardship, misfortune or poverty, as a result of an accident, illness, disability, unemployment or retirement. They are vital for seafarers especially in these trying times as they help get the most needy through this tough winter. 

Any donation is enormously appreciated and will go a long way to helping those most in need. Plus will be good motivation as I limp round London.
