Army Benevolent Fund

Coming back for more

Ten years, I am back on the 7 - 8 June 2025, to take part in the Cateran Yomp. A 54-mile hike in 24 hours across rural Perthshire.

It’s going to be tougher than ever...I will have to hold myself back, not compare myself to previous successes and ensure I stay safe and not injure myself!

I will be raising vital funds for the Army Benevolent Fund, providing a lifetime of support to soldiers, veterans and their immediate families.

Please give generously, and thank you for all your support.

Total amount

Gift Aid I confirm I have paid or will pay an amount of UK Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax for each tax year that is at least equal to the amount of tax that all the charities or community amateur sports clubs that I donate to will reclaim on my gifts for that tax year. I understand that other taxes such as VAT and Council Tax do not qualify. I understand the charity will reclaim 25p of tax on every £1 that I have given.

My Updates

2025 done

Taking an easy pace, enjoying the company and scenery made for a fantastic day on Saturday.

I was on a high mentally and physically, enjoying every minute of the sunshine, rain and hills.

Thanks to everyone for their sponsorship and to the full WG&S squad for all the laughs and support.

Less than two weeks to go

Skye has enjoyed all the longer and off road walks as I prepare for the Yomp. For me its been a struggle to balance getting the miles in, focus on my physio and quieten the voice of you should be quicker/faster.

The walk around Sheriffmuir and up the Dumyat hill on Saturday was a good test for what is to come. I am as ready as I could be!

Post Yomp, I will be back to my Physio :-)

10 years on

I completed my first Yomp with WG&S in 2015. Across the next three years I completed the Yomp, with some wonderful people; Big Ian McLaren, Ewen Cameron, Kirsten Macfarlane and my nephew, James. Each year we got faster, running more and taking shorter breaks, getting to the top 10 finishers and the 2nd woman in.

10 years later, I am giving it another go but with a different goal...testing myself after rupturing my Achilles last year. My target is enjoy the experience, make it to Bronze and not injure myself!
