Good luck Bobby. Im sure you will smash it, after all its only 50 mile
Bobby Sharp's Story
On 25th July, I’m taking on the Montane Lakeland 50 in support of Team True Spirit. It’s a 50 mile ultramarathon through the Lake District with around 10,000 feet of climbing.
Team True Spirit supports wounded, injured and sick veterans through recovery, rehabilitation and sport. Support like this can be hard to find after leaving the military, which is why their work is so important. Through endurance challenges and shared experiences, they give veterans something to work towards, rebuilding confidence and purpose.
I served in the Parachute Regiment and was injured in Afghanistan in 2008, so I know how important that kind of support is.
I’m aiming to raise a minimum of £500 to support the work they do. Every donation helps, and anything above that goes even further in supporting more veterans.
If you can spare anything at all — even a few quid — it genuinely makes a huge difference.
Thank you for the support.
