Congratulations to OMK Peter Mossop (1986-91) who is running the incredible Marathon des Sables in North Africa in memory of his late friend, Jules Roberts. It is essentially SIX marathons in SIX days in the Moroccan desert. He has to be totally self-sufficient carrying all his own food, water and safety kit and the only thing provided by the organisers is crude sleeping arrangements at the end of each day!

He's hoping to raise an incredible £15k for Walking With the Wounded.  You can sponsor his sterling efforts and read more about his endeavour HERE
