No rush! The race isn't until October so whenever you can afford it would be very appreciated.

Desmo, will post pictures of anything the website has & whatever my girlfriend takes at the race.

Just been told a couple of my mates are doing it as well after being inspired by me. Dressed like Braveheart! Safe to say they'll be a few minutes behind me!

Cheers mate! Much appreciated!

Target has been officially smashed by £30 at time of writing! £280

Just packing up my stuff now, leaving tomorrow morning to prepare & celebrate 3 years with my other half a day early

She'll be in charge of photos & videos from our end but I'll hopefully end up on the website photo album if I pull a few faces & beast the race!

Well, I did it! I got absolutely caked in mud, river clay & possibly the snot of other competitors but I did it! Think I did about 45 minutes roughly, set off at 12.30 and when my gf took my medal photo it was almost 1.15.

At the time of writing I have smashed my target by raising £301!

Heres a few pics my gf took along with our Anniversary pics which was the same day as the race!

Thanks everyone who sponsored me, page is still open if you're feeling generous!
