🏔️❤️ 20 YEARS OF BEN NEVIS — AND A BRAVEHEARTS TRADITION THAT MEANS SO MUCH.

Every year after we climb Ben Nevis, Britain’s highest mountain, we come together, plenty of laughs and one of my favourite Bravehearts traditions — our annual hike & presentation. 🥃🏔️

This year will be particularly special.

2026 marks 20 years since mum passed then we started hiking Ben Nevis in memory of my mum, Katie McMillan. ❤️

What started as a climb in her memory has become an annual Bravehearts tradition, bringing so many incredible people together and creating memories and friendships that will last a lifetime.

Each year we also recognise two people with our Bravehearts Most Committed & Influential Male and Female Awards — not necessarily the fastest, strongest or fittest, but the people who consistently show up, encourage others, lead by example and make Bravehearts a better place simply by being part of it.

Pictured here are our 2024/25 winners, Paul Macskimming and Neeta Eli . 🏆👏

Two very deserving winners who represent exactly what these awards are all about.

Now the question is…

👀 Who will be taking these shields home after our 20th Anniversary Ben Nevis climb this year? 🏆 (link to vote this years winner will be open 1 week before hike)

One thing is guaranteed — it’s going to be an emotional and very special weekend.

20 years. One mountain. One very special reason. ❤️

For Mum. Always. 🏔️❤️

🏅 MEDAL MONDAY — IRONMAN LEEDS 2026 🏅

What a photo. What a day. What an achievement. ❤️🖤

An absolute pleasure and an honour to be there yesterday supporting David Burns and Joe Donnelly as they took on and completed IRONMAN Leeds. 🏊‍♂️🚴‍♂️🏃‍♂️

From watching them set off at the start line, following them throughout the day, to finally seeing them come down that finishing line and hearing those famous words…

“YOU ARE AN IRONMAN!” 🔥

Unless you’ve taken on something like this, it’s hard to appreciate just how much goes into getting to that finish line. The months of training, the early mornings, the sacrifices, the good sessions, the bad sessions — then having to put it all together on one massive day.

Both guys dug deep, kept moving forward and got the job done. 💪

Couldn’t be prouder to have these two representing Bravehearts.

Yesterday was their day — I was just lucky enough to be there from start line to finish line to witness it.

Massive congratulations, lads. Enjoy that medal. You’ve earned every bit of it. 🏅❤️🖤

DavId Burns — YOU ARE AN IRONMAN!
JOE DONNELLY — YOU ARE AN IRONMAN!
