    On 19th Sept 2008, I will begin a week long trek up Mount Kilimanjaro for The Alzheimer's Society. My Mum was diagnosed with the disease two years ago and now requires 24 hour care in a nursing home.

    Training began in January and so far I have walked 240 miles and cycled 150.

    • pumpmypacemaker 'Hi Lucy, we went in feb 07, great experience, not eating meat and drinking plenty of water, was the best advice we had, summiting at sun rise is the most unforgetable experience, the last 8 hours are the hardest take it slowly and enjoy good luck Frances' added 29th Mar 2008
