Austin 'Jungle' Jarrett does it again!

Local businessman and long-standing friend of the charity, Austin Jarrett, is off on another challenge in June. Having completed the Marathon Des Sables across the Sahara Desert last year you would think Austin would be taking it easy. Not at all, he is determined to compete in 'Jungle Ultra', a 230km race across the Amazon jungle in Peru.

He will face 100% humidity, non stop rain and mud galore - watch out for spiders Austin!
