Diana, Dunc, Ross and Bryony have set themselves the challenge of completing the Pedal, Paddle, Peak event as a team along the Jurassic Coast at the end of September.

Cycling 40 km, kayaking 3 km along the coast, and then hiking 17 km to finish. All in support of the 110,000 children and adults in the UK that live with a muscle-wasting condition.

A considerable amount of training will be needed for some of the team in order to actually complete the challenge! With sore knees, backs and general lack of fitness, it will be a summer of building up stamina and muscle to finish within the 9 hour limit.

But at least we have the opportunity to give it a go and push ourselves to get fit. In that respect we are the lucky ones, as so many people are living with lifelong illnesses and degenerative conditions that make even daily tasks feel like running a marathon.

So please support us to reach the target fundraising - the money goes to support those living with muscle wasting conditions and to research to find new treatments to help people to live more comfortably and get as much out of life as possible.

Our team name is Insomnia! Inspired by a love of Faithless, how we will likely feel before the race and what we plan to dance to when we finish :-)
