A GRIM weekend

December 5th and 6th the GRIM Challenge took place on the army vehicle testing land at Aldershot. It's an 8 mile multi-terrain race which involves running through waist deep water, clambering through camouflage netting and running up and down steep sandy hills.

Last year I took a small video camera with me and filmed the race from a competitors point of view and posted the footage on YouTube. A few months later I was contacted by Michael McGrath, the head of a Muscular Dystrophy charity, and asked to film the 'Muscle Warriors' team at the 2009 event. The result of my efforts can be seen here..

And on the following day I took part in the Sunday race and managed to knock 4 minutes off my personal best.
