Special Skills
I wouldn't profess to having any special skills as such. In all these challenges I have completed I wouldn't say I'm an expert at any of them. But, I have trained for them, given them a go, tried my hardest and managed to complete them.
I've enjoyed all of them and more importantly I have learned a lot about myself along the way that I believe would help others complete their own challenges.
