My motivation

Having fought with my own demons for years and losing a mate to suicide, with multiple acquaintances also taking their own life, I decided to take advantage of my redundancy and raise money for men's mental health.
On the 15/04/24 I start a 1000 mile journey on foot, from lands end the southern most point in the mainland, to John O'Groats in Scotland, the northern most part of the mainland. On route, I shall be climbing the Snowdon, and then Ben Nevis. instagram @hiketodamascus

Regretfully, and much to my dismay, after 18 days, around 190 miles, 9 blisters, 5 packs of compeed plasters, 70 litres of water, various heinz and also noodle based foods, I've had to jack in my trip for the moment. My toe has worsened, and I've been advised to take a break. thank you all who donated and supported such an important cause. I am extremely grateful

thanks to all who donated so far, massive thank you, honestly.
I am training for setting off on the 15th, so fundraising for men's health isn't over until I'm back home in a few months. I'm not sure how long it'll take until I set a pace, but I'm going to try and smash it.
