Our biggest challenge yet!!
Hi all,
Kim & I are taking on a BIG challenge on 19th June 2026.
We will be walking from Westward Ho to Paignton, a distance of 109km in 24 hours. Or 68 miles!! This equates to just under 3 miles per hour for a solid 24 hours!! And 3 miles per hour is a normal walking pace just going to the shops so imagine trying to keep that up for a full 24 hours!! There is going to be very little time to rest, if any at all.
You all know Iām no stranger to big challenges completing 20-25 National 3 Peaks annually, as well as my Ultimate 3 Peaks and several overseas challenges including Kilimanjaro (3 this year!), Mt Toubkal and Everest Base Camp. And Kim is no stranger to these events, but I think this may be our biggest challenge yet!
This is all in aid of The Devon Clinic. This amazing charity provides affordable therapy and support for those who would otherwise not get any, at a time when they need it most. With NHS resources scarce or waiting lists too long, this charity provides this help and support exactly when people need it. And Iāll tell you that this is a lifesaver for many people.
We sponsor many people ourselves for the amazing fundraising they do and Iāve very rarely asked anyone to sponsor me but this time Iām asking you for help. If you can spare anything at all it would be greatly appreciated. All of the money raised goes directly to helping people through this amazing charity. Thereās no big CEO salaries or the likes, no investing in stocks and shares like the big charities, none of that malarkey! Every penny is used to provide their services.

Thank you for your help.
