Do the ‘run/ walk for life’ along the Great Wall of China for the British Heart Foundation (In support of my Mum to raise awareness of the rare heart condition she has) I’d one day like to road trip around America and see the great natural wonders such as Niagara Falls.
- Any other interesting facts about yourself? - In 2008 I overcame my fear of swimming with and attempted a 2.4 mile Ironman triathlon swim. I didn’t quite make the grade but overcoming my fear of the water was a great achievement. I’ve completed a 5k ‘Race for Life’, The Chasewater 10k and Sefton Triathlon.
