The Cateran Yomp 2026

Right… I’m officially starting to shake the can

This year I’ll be taking on the Cateran Yomp as part of 51 Signal Squadron, raising funds for The Army Benevolent Fund that support serving soldiers, veterans, and their families.

I’ve sensibly chosen the relay option — a mere 13.5 miles across Scottish terrain, while carrying ~10kg in my pack and wearing issued combat boots.
For those unfamiliar: they are not designed for comfort, speed, or joy.

There will be hills.
There will be blisters.
There will be regret somewhere around mile 9.

If you’d like to sponsor me and help turn pain, sweat, and questionable choices into something genuinely positive, I’d hugely appreciate it.

Every contribution helps (and gives me extra motivation not to stop halfway)
Thanks in advance for your support
