Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As most of you all know, I was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer in 2019.

I was successfully treated with radiotherapy and as a result, I would like to raise money for Cancer Research.

I am going to attempt to traverse the Pyrenees mountains, from Irun in North Weat Spain on the Atlantic coast, across to Cabo De Creus on the Mediterranean coast. A distance of 850k!

I shall be using mountain refuges, but will be predominately wild camping and doing what bears do in the woods 🐻 💩

I’m hoping to complete this challenge in around 30 days!
