Commenting on the challenge ahead Kenny said, "100 miles is a long way for a 54 year-old, gout-suffering, overweight grandfather with a dodgy shoulder to push himself up and down 6,000 feet of hills, so if you want to make me feel good about going through all that pain and suffering then please consider making a donation on my fundraising page at https://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/fundraiser-portal/fundraiserPage?pageId=956680"
