Hi Kirsty. As far as the practice is going is that at this stage I have to keep asking Katie to slow down, so I'm heading down to local beach later to tackle the sand dunes!

Im lucky enough to live near the peak district, last week i went hill walking however the weather closed in a bit, so i got down pretty sharpish. Ive also done the 17 mile high peak challenge and the 34 mile round chesterfield walk in my time (I didn't do all 34 in one day though) im expecting Iceland to be way tougher though so i still need to do some more training...

Looking forward to meeting you all not long now...

Steven

Haven't even thought about packing yet -still feel like its ages away which is silly. Better get a move on! Looking forward to meeting everyone. We'll be flying into Heathrow day before so will come around even sooner for us. Lots of rain forecast, I see. Mary
