Jacob is a first year chemistry student at the University of Kent.

 

He is no stranger to running and has competed in track and cross country for over 10 years, winning numerous races.

 

Being crowned North West Surrey district champion being probably his greatest achievement.

 

Unfortunately due to exams he will only be completing half of this years challenge, but this is still no mean feat as it will be 300X his favoured distance of 800 metres.

 

Jacob is looking forward to the sprint finish in Amsterdam were he will undoubtedly be crowned the inaugural Cants2Dam champion.
