Band Corporal Shuggie McGleish is doing a 1200 miles John O'Groats to Land's End partially supported Sponsored walk in aid of the Dame Hannah Rodgers School and the Royal Navy Benevolent Fund on Friday 4th August and finishing on 1st of October 2006 at Land's End.
He will be covering 25 miles per day for six days a week with one rest day. He will be carrying all of his own kit on his back (this weighs 25Kg or 4 stone in old money) throughout the duration of this walk. He will be sleeping wherever he ends up and not lording it in some hotel... wherever he ends the 25 miles will be home for the night!
He aims to raise in excess of five thousand five hundred pounds and will continue to collect right up until late december.
Should you wish to sponsor him please send a cheque made payable to 'End to end walk DHRS and RNBF Appeal" and send it to:

A mobile phone number will be posted here shortly so you can send Shuggie text messages of support.
Your support is essential to him in completing this epic but NOT as important as your MONEY!!!!!

Photos will be posted in due course and you will be able to follow his progress via the main website during September. _________________ http://www.royalmarinesbands.co.uk

I'm doing him a section on the main website tomorow night, he'll be texting me his location from time to time during September and I'll posting it on his page!
He's bringing his route in so that will be on his page as well. _________________ http://www.royalmarinesbands.co.uk

I'll happily support young John Ramsay, and if he's anywhere near Edinburgh or Rosyth I'm sure I'll join Shapy in a mile or 3...... _________________ “All men are equal. All men, that is, who possess umbrellas.”

After a couple of "Nippy Sweeties" young Shuggie could do with a speech unit himself..... _________________ One is hardly sensible of fatigue while he marches to music.
