On the 6 - 7 June 2026, I am taking on the Cateran Yomp. A 54-mile hike in 24 hours across rural Perthshire.
It’s going to be tough but it will raise 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.

What was i thinking
Since leaving the forces I let my fitness go. I've recently been trying to get back in shape other than round. This came up and I thought why not give myself a goal and a challenge. As well as raising a bit of money to help a really worthy causeThank you to my Sponsors
