My story

Hey there.   My name is Mark Georgeson and welcome to my site.  The very short version of this story is that following a bike accident in 2018 resulting in a broken back, neck, pelvic bleed and brain injury and subsequent medical retirement from my job, I have been on a bit of a journey of recovery and would love to tell you my story.  

The purpose of this site is to tell you a wee bit about myself before the accident, a bit about the accident (although not too much!), take you through my rehabilitation so far and what I’ve learnt, and document progress as the journey continues. Oh and tell you about some new plans I have to get back to fitness (see the name of the website!) The problem/benefit of having crazy friends….I’ll let you decide;)

Essentially this a story of hope and if you find one thing in my story that helps you through your own difficult moment in life or inspires you to go on your own personal quest to build a better quality of life I would be delighted:)! Please get in touch(although I wouldn’t recommend trying too hard to get knocked off your bike by a van at 50mph!) There are easier ways to progress on your journey.

I have found that the people around you are amazing and the people you meet on the way generally have your best interests at heart. So stay positive:)

I have decided to raise money this year for two of the charities that have helped me in my recovery. You can read more about the events I am entering on the blog page and donate at the button below. Any donations will be most gratefully received.
