For the last 25 years I've lived with the results of a spinal injury, under gone countless surgeries and procedures. I'm one of the lucky ones, I have had my good times and bad times but I've always been able to stay active and be independent. I live with constant pain, now managed by the wonders of technology through a neural stimulator implanted in my abdomen with electrodes in my spine. Time for me to give back and be thankful I can do something small to help.

Follow me as a train for the biggest, maddest physical and mental challenge todate, 70 miles, crosing the country following Hadrians Wall, Carlisle to Newcastle.
