On April 16th 2010, I will embark upon a brutal solo slog through the mountains and deserts of Mexico's Baja California Peninsula, the longest in the world and scorching hot to boot. 

My endurance challenge will cover well over 1000 miles from luxurious resort town Cabo San Lucas to the infamous busiest border town on the planet, Tijuana. It is an incredibly ambitious challenge and extremely dangerous too. We are ill-equipped, under-resourced and regularly told how mad we are.

I'm not Bob Geldof and I am not an athlete by any stretch of the imagination. 

I am just a normal bloke with fire in my belly and a keen sense of justice for kids.. That's all.. But with a website and some good mates helping out, that's all we need to make a massive difference to a lot of lives that deserve a fair chance at the basics. Health, Education and Sport..

Please check my website for more information - http://www.theirshoes.org

THIS IS AN INDEPENDENTLY FUNDED PROJECT. 

IT IS NOT BANKROLLED BY THE CHARITY OR BY THE GOOD FOLK THAT SPONSOR THEIR HARD EARNED CASH.

EVERY PENNY OF EVERY DONATION GOES DIRECTLY TO CHARITY.

For the last year I have been volunteering as a Football coach for under-privileged Mexican kids in Baja California, and by doing so, I have been exposed to the heart-wrenching needs of children and their families in poverty. 

Please help me to help them to help themselves by donating to The Los Cabos Children's Foundation who's inspiring work can be found at:

If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to drop me a mail - info@theirshoes.org
