ABOUT OUR TIM In 2000 a car on the wrong side of the road, overtaking on a blind summit, crashed into coach Tim's car leaving him in a coma for two weeks and life-threatening injuries that took him years of surgeries and rehab to recover from. He is now mostly held together by metal. Find out more about the accident and his road to recovery here https://www.youtube.com/live/dRzi1AvUNOA

Diolch! Thanks! To the lovely Lowri Morgan for chatting to us about her Ras Cefn y Draigg (Dragon’s Back Race) experience in 2019 where she crossed the finish line as 4th female and first in her age category, looking so strong with her 4-year-old son on her back, despite having been battling a knee injury for over half of the race! Lowri is Wales' finest TV presenter and BAFTA-award-winning broadcaster commentated on last year’s race and the 2021 race film.
