Climbing a mountain…



Sue has volunteered along with several of her work colleagues to participate in a physical endurance challenge for charity.
 
The company is Learning Tree International and their Tri-Challenge includes a 40 mile cycle ride around Mt Snowdon, climbing the Pyg track up the mountain and back down again to race in canoes across Lake Gwynant. Sue is planning to do the climb and the canoe event but not the bike ride as she can’t be trusted out on the roads.

The sponsorship will be split across three charities; Children with Cancer, Queen Elizabeth’s Foundation and the Pilgrims Hospices.

For my part I will be acting as support crew, driving them up to Wales and ferrying them around the events.

Training has been to walk across the hilly Ranmore Common from our house in a circular route and I must say I am certainly glad I am not going to do the challenge myself.
