Thank you

A few days have passed and we should all be fit and well by now.

The time is right, I think, to says a little something about our team.

First Barry and Guy:

I am immensely grateful for their friendship and support. 

This has been a real team event starting with training over the winter, our wonderful "calm" team suppers, the planning meetings and the magnificent work in organising the trip and puling in the sponsors. 

Pat, Lucinda, Hazel, Suzanne and all of Jodie's family and friends have been simply wonderful. 

It is the sponsorship and the difference it will make which makes it all worthwhile.

but it's the love and care of our families that made it all possible.

The trek will never be forgotten, the people, the smells, the sights, the sounds, the magnificence of the mountains, the bizarre and fascinating world of Base Camp, the never ending exhaustion of the run its self.

The rest of the "foreign" runners, our wider team, all different, but all with the same view of the world; it's here to be relished, to be swallowed whole, any-thing's possible and it's worth giving it a go.

Finally Jodie, real bravery, grit, and a joy in life it's self. 

This was no walk in the park, there were real risks, 3 people including one Sherpa had to descend because of Pulmonary Oedema and all of us experienced AMS to different extents.

Jodie is a fitting Ambassador for others who live with Cystic Fibrosis and she's a delight to know and I'm proud to call her my friend.
