Hello! Thanks for taking the time to check out my fundraising page.

For those of you I've not met, my name is Cal. I am a 33 year old firefighter from Stirling, and over the course of 2024 I will be aiming to complete 12 different physical challenges - one a month - and hope to raise money for The Brain Tumour Charity, and SiMBA along the way. The full list of challenges can be found below. Some will take the full month to complete, others, just a few days, and some 24 hours or less, but all will be done around working 2 jobs, and whilst trying to remain a fully functioning adult as well as maintaining a social life!

The Challenges!

January - 5k Everyday

February - Swim 24k ‍

March - Row 193k ‍

April - Olympic Triathlon

May - Etape Caledonia ‍

June - Tough Mudder Inifinity ‍

July - Three Peaks Challenge

August - Dundee Kiltwalk ‍

September - Coast to Coast ‍

October - West Highland Way‍

November - Cycle 400km ‍

December - The Twelve 10k’s of Christmas

Ultimately, I'm doing this to challenge myself, just to see if I can, and prove to myself I'm not as old as I'm starting to feel, but it would also mean a lot to me to raise some money for a couple of excellent causes at the same time. I have chosen The Brain Tumour Charity, and SiMBA as they are 2 charities that have supported family and friends through extremely tough times in recent years. Please have a look at the incredible work they do.

None of the challenges will be about how fast I can do them. I'll only be competing against myself. Its just about getting to the finish line(s), and making it to December 31st 2024. Mama didn't raise no quitter!

I'd love any and all company along the way, so if you’d like to join me at any point, just let me know. I'll need all the help I can get! You can also keep up to date with how I'm getting on over on my Instagram page, @Cal_lenge2024.

Thanks again!

Cal
