People ask me if it gets any easier. Well, it's just the same height as it ever was, and the air is just as thin, and minus seven degrees is still minus seven, whatever year you climb! So, in a way it doesn't get any easier as my knees get a little more painful as the years roll by.
On the other hand, I am under no illusion about the effort it takes, so I guess I am more prepared mentally, even if physically it gets more challenging!
But, that's enough about me. Two key things to remember are: it's about the kids we care for in Kenya, not me. Street kids sleep rough every night (not just a few nights under canvas as I did during my climb). And they don't have enough to eat (I had loads of food during the climb). And they don't have many friends., whereas I had Rod and Mike encouraging me every step of the way (thanks, guys).
Together we raised a lot of sponsorship which will keep our wonderful, transforming work going. There's still a chance to donate if you wish to: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/Martins-SEVENTH-Never-Again-Kili-Climb-2016
