40 before 40: The List



In March 2019 I will be turning 40; I'm not quite sure that I feel ready to be that old, but according to my birthday certificate it is definitely true! And the following year Steve will be joining me. We've decided to both do a serious of 40 challenges.

So, in the next 400 days I am hoping to do all of these challenges. I will give you regular updates as I go.
