Training walk on Sunday

Looks like we are going for a walk round Rutland water, Sunday morning and try it in sub 4hrs.
Should be fun

Route mapping 101

Too map or not to map that is the question.
Having to work out a few turn back points if any issues arise on the challenge.
Taxi has been called so we can get around with minimal fuss.

Things are moving along well


Time is passing on now and we are looking down the barrel of the challenge, with it being only 51 days away.
Can’t wait for it to be here all the training can be put into practise.
This week I got my act into gear and started the sponsorship off and set up the fund raising site at Virgin money giving http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/team/KGH.Trekking, I just hope all this effort was worth it.
We are looking to raise about £1000 plus but I would love to get well beyond that figure, posters are done and yet again my dyslexia got the better of me and I did my usual spelling mistake I accept by now it’s my trade mark and i am sure it makes people read and take it in more.

Our next training event will be on the 19/20th of this month and we can test doing 2 walks over 2 consecutive days, really testing the old legs and getting a feel for what you will be like on the second day.

I have started a twitter page for the group and we at last have a name the @KGH-trekkers and all the links are on the fund raising site so please visit us and follow all our escapades during the next few months.
