Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit Team Kishinoor's JustGiving page.

We've done it 3rd in the Tillman (4 crew up mountains) and 8th overall is great for race novices. We'll know what to do NEXT time. Thanks to everyone who has donated money. The 3 peaks competitors donated £200 in a raffle for a jacket kindly donated by Henri Lloyd which was won by Richard from On and Up. Our support crew were excellent Rosemary, Nicky, Annie, Paul, Jo, Nia and Lauren cheered us all the way. Also all the messages we received from our followers on the net were brilliant it kept us informed of where the fleet was and it was fab to know we were being watched.

Thanks again
John, Duncan, Robin, Simon and Julian
