Hiking 100 Miles

I'm hiking 100 miles worth of Scottish Munros during the weekend to support Social Bite in their mission to break the cycle of homelessness and finishing on World Homeless Day on October 10th. This challenge will raise vital funds to expand the innovative work of Social Bite in providing homes, jobs, and food. Social Bite believes everyone deserves a safe place to call home, that a job can be truly transformative for someone who has experienced homelessness, and that food is one of the most powerful engagement tools to help signpost people to access the support needed. I would be grateful if you could support my fundraising efforts with a donation to this page. Every £20 donation could help Social Bite to provide x4 meals for people experiencing homelessness. Together with your support, we can truly help break the cycle of homelessness.

4th Weekend - 69/100 Miles

Thursday 1st Oct
Beinn Dearg in Blair Atholl

3rd Weekend - 50/100 Miles

Monday 21st Sep
Took two people both called Craig and went up Glas Tulaichean in Glenshee. Into the wind and uphill both ways. We called off going up Càrn an Righ due to the weather and it turned out to be the right call after one of the guys had a shoe fall apart with a few miles of stony paths and rivers left to go. Did what we could to rescue it with a bandage.

Once again thanks for anyone who has donated and extra thanks to those who have shared this with others!


2nd Weekend - 35/100 Miles

Sunday 13th Sep
Massive thanks to everyone who has donated to this fantastic cause and shared the fundraising link with others.

You are supporting life changing work 💪

No big hike this weekend but managed to run a half marathon along to Cramond and back from Leith. Will feel that tomorrow.

1st Weekend - 20/100 Miles

Sunday 6th Sep
Thank you so much to everyone who has donated so far I really appreciate the support. Special shout out to my mate Adam for giving up his Saturday to plan and join me on a 7 hour long, 4 Munro hike to get my first miles in. Also big thanks to my mum for suggesting we go to Archerfield to get some more miles in, would love to return here. Final thanks to my jelly legs for having juuust enough left to jog along the coast to hit my 20 mile target this weekend, apologies to anyone who had to witness that.
