Pete Completes the Spartan Trifecta for Martha
Our family friend, Pete, decided to take on the Spartan Trifecta to raise money towards an electric wheelchair for Martha. The Spartan Trifecta is a super tough and gruelling 44km (marathon) obstacle challenge spread over 2 days: The Spartan Beast 22km obstacle course on day one and the Spartan Super 16km and Spartan Super 6km on day two.
We are so grateful to Pete for taking on the challenge and raising over £3000 towards Martha's wheelchair. What a superstar!
