Mike Thompson

This week was my father's funeral. The last couple of weeks have been a bit odd as a result, but I have found out some things about my dad that are really impressive. One of the things I found was the details of the entry exam he would have had to pass to join P Company/ 7 RHA. You can see the fitness requirements here:

I am currently nowhere near fit enough to do this, but that is something I am going to change. In a years time I am going to try to do the same physical tests for charity. I haven't worked out how or where yet, I figure the first part is to get fit enough to do it. My first bench mark for it is this: http://extreme-stampede.co.uk/ a 10k with obstacles run in September, so please consider sponsoring me for that run. Alternately if I have reached my very modest sponsorship goal please consider giving to the RNLI or Stroke association both of which had meaning to my Dad.
