We will be setting off at sunrise to bike, hike and paddle around a challenging course in a race against the sun.

We are racing in aid of children's charity, Action Medical Research. They have spent over 70 years funding vital research to help defeat the diseases that devastate the lives of sick and disabled babies, children, and young people.

By supporting our team you will be helping to find ways to reduce premature birth, to support children facing a lifetime of challenges caused by disabilities, and to develop cutting-edge therapies for rare and incurable diseases.

Thank you so much for your support.

We will get off the couch at the start of August and have until 13th Sept to train!

Thank you for supporting a great charity
