Welcome
Thankyou for taking the time to visit this site!
We are 2 (and I think it's fair to say in my case - Dave) fairly unfit 25 year old blokes but in just under 6 months we intend to turn ourselves into lean, mean, walking machines!
The idea is that we will climb Mount Kilimanjaro from the 10th to the 21st of June 2010, have just 4 days rest and then complete the full 85 mile parish walk around the Isle of Man within a 24 hour period on the 26th of June!
You may be asking yourself "why on earth would someone attempt this" and to be honest it's a very good question which we ask ourselves regularly! We feel that this is an extremely tough physical & mental test along with a great opportunity to raise money for three great charities.
If you are interested in helping us raise money for these deserving charities (The Alzheimers Society, MacMillan Cancer Support & Isle of Man Rebecca House) then please check out the links above. It is also worth noting that as we are paying for the events personally 100% of anything you could donate will go straight to them! Blatantly a massive cliché but anything at all you could give would be very welcome and going to very worthwhile causes.
We will be keeping this site updated with photos, training blogs and general news & updates on the trip (at links above). As we will be training all over the island, please feel free to support us and give us a beep (or a lift!!) if you see us on the roads.
Thanks for reading, any and all support most gratefully received.
Wish us luck!
Dave & Mark.
