Update: West Highland Way madness

Written by Fiona June 25 2009

So it seems that Charlie was proper poorly. Just a few hours into the event he felt weary, clammy and ended up with bad diarrhoea. He was right to stop where he did and to recognise that to continue would have been a disaster, not to mention the potential for laying him up for weeks afterwards. It’s a brave man that admits defeat! I spoke to Charlie on Monday and he is majorly gutted not to have completed however he plans to try again next year. Hopefully he’ll ask me to support him again.
