I'm planning to climb all the Munros in Scotland as a continuous journey, from the most southerly (Ben Lomond) to the most northerly (Ben Hope).

There are a total of 284 Munros in Scotland, and I'm hoping to climb them all between mid-April and mid-August this year. If I make it, I will have walked more than 1100 miles and climbed close to 480,000 ft. Hence the madness.

Check out my blog to see how I'm getting on at;

I'm also hoping to raise money for Maggie's Cancer Care Centres along the way. This charity offers specialist support and help to all those affected by cancer. They do not receive any funding from NHS or other govermental organisations and rely solely on private donations and fundraising activities.

It costs approx. £350,000 a year to keep a Maggie's Centre open.

Last year the Maggie's Centre Edinburgh welcomed over 18,000 people through its doors.

If you'd like to know more about the type of work and support Maggie's Centres offers, more details can be found on their website;

Many thanks for your interest and any donation you can make!

Thanks
