Throughout 2025, RAF veteran and Surrey business owner, James Shaw, completed 185km of Tough Mudder obstacles, raising over £2,900 for the Forces Employment Charity.

Each event features mud, fire, ice, and walls, pushing participants. During the World’s Toughest Mudder, James covered 50 miles and 150 obstacles in 24 hours, demonstrating endurance and commitment to supporting the Armed Forces community.
“This year hasn’t just been about fitness. It’s been about showing my son, and others, what’s possible and making sure veterans and their families never get left behind.”
