Our congratulations to Rob Kidd, Tom Burgess Katarn and Liam Doughty for their fantastic achievement in completing the gruelling Spartan Race at Pippingford Park, in a fantastic time. The world's premier obstacle course with 8 miles of mud, fire and water, this is a serious challenge but these students from Oxford made sure that they were ready to go the distance with plenty of training beforehand.

Rob was a good friend of JT, they served together in the Royal Marines and John's Foundation was therefore a clear choice as the recipient charity for his challenge. Rob commented on the event. "An awesome day out tackling the mud and water to raise money for JTYAF! Definitely do it again next year."

Almost £700 raised in sponsorship by these Spartan warriors, which will make a huge difference to many young people's lives. A huge thank you to Team Astral Unicorn and as John would say "Hoofing effort fellas!"

It's not too late to donate, why not visit Rob's on-line fundraising page and show your support.
