Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As most of you will know over the last 2 years I have gone through quite a life affirming change.  I made the decision to get into shape and get my life back before I threw it away through being very overweight.  2 years, 6 stone and a gastric band later I am now in the best shape of my life and looking to prove to myself that all of those wasted years of being a fatty are behind me.

I have decided to do something quite drastic and have agreed to accompany Sir Ian Botham on his next mega trek. I am taking part in "Beefy`s Big Sri Lanka Walk 2013"!!!!

it consists of walking 7 or 8 hours over 8 consecutive days!  If you combine this with the heat and humidity it is going to be a massive undertaking for me, someone who has never undertaken anything like this before.

You are probably thinking why Sri Lanka?  Well 17 years ago Joanne and I got married in Sri Lanka and since that date the island has held a special place in both of our hearts.  This is a great way to gie something back.

I want to thank some of my fantastic customers and suppliers who have all promised to support me (Cant back out now chaps :)) especially TalentQ who are paying the Lions share of my personal costs so that all of the money we raise can go straight to the charity.
