‘My weight has ballooned’

I’m 68 this year and two years ago reached 14,000 feet in the Himalayas in Bhutan walking the Druk Path.

I hoped to do Kilimanjaro last year but Covid scuppered that. Instead I got lazy and ballooned to nearly 15 stone. This challenge will help me lose that weight, and get back my ambition – the target now to do Helvellyn by Striding Edge §this year. And I’d still love to do Kilimanjaro before I reach 70.”
