Ken has worked for Lincolnshire Fire and Rescue for over 25 years at Gainsborough Station and the South Park headquarters.

He said: “Featuring loads of jumps and drops, it was a really challenging course. It was quite close between first and second place, but the camaraderie between me and the winner was great.

“It’s always been a dream to compete in these games, so I’m delighted to have had the opportunity to take part.”
