Story

Thank you for visiting my page.

Across 2026, I have booked to take on a number of physical challenges, an average of one a month until October.

These events include the following:

4 x Half Marathons

4 x Hyrox competition (3 x Pairs, 1 x Solo)

A 2 mile open water swim (Swim Serpentine)

Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge (12hrs to complete 24 miles across the 3 highest peaks in the Yorkshire dales).

National 3 Peaks Challenge 24hrs to complete 3 highest peaks across England, Scotland and Wales - (Ben Nevis, Snowdon & Scafell Pike)

Kilimanjaro Trek - 8 Day hike up Africa's highest mountain

Having secured a place across all of these events, I've decided to raise money for a charity.

I've picked a charity that helped and supported a good friend of mine last year, when their family was impacted by a rare form of Sarcoma cancer.

If you are not aware of Sarcoma, it is a type of cancer that develops in the bone and soft tissue. It is difficult to diagnose and one of the hardest to treat. By supporting me, we can help change this.

Sarcoma UK, is a national charity that funds vital research, offers support for anyone affected by sarcoma cancer and campaigns for better treatments.

Your donation will help researchers find answers, keep their Support Line open, and raise awareness to improve treatment and standards of care.

I have personally secured and funded a place across all of these events, including all travel arrangements and insurances, 100% of your donation will be going straight to the charity (not towards any event costs).

Thank you for your help in donating whatever you can to this great cause, I really appreciate it.

If you train with me or if you cheer me on across any of these events, thank you so much your support, it really helps to drive me forward.

Thank you
