Kevin Groome
I am family-man with 3 older children (one now a keen climber/mountaineer) and a very understanding wife (no problems with climbing trips!). I run 20 miles weekly, road-cycle, weight-train and climb regularly (indoors & outdoors). I am a very energetic and enthusiastic individual - always active!Location

About My Photography
On most of my recent climbing trips I have produced sufficient cam-corder/still images to make short films. Great fun to put together and an excellent long-term record/reference.
Anything Else We Should Know
I climbed with a well known 'pro-climber' in May 05 (Les Ecrins -Tete D’Aval-600M big wall + others). We met in 2004 at a diabetic climb meet in the French Alps; we both have diabetes - me for 25 years. I am fortunate to have a regular group of climbing partners; while I am fit I want to spend as much time mountaineering and climbing as possible. Meeting new partners and learning new skills is definitely part of my gameplan. In June/July 06 I took a two month sabbatical to live and climb in the Alps every day... awesome!
I am also climbing all the 4000ers in the Alps as a long-term goal.
