Story

Deciding to sign up to one of these challenges to raise money for charity sounded like a great idea, until I realised  that I actually do little to no exercise(you probably noticed) the most exercise I currently get is walking to my car in the morning.

Luckily, I've got an equally unfit friend Jamie who found "The Nuts Challenge" and we agreed to sign up from the comfort of our office chairs. We decided to commit, book and pay as this would mean there was no option of backing out of the challenge.

We both have chosen charities that have a huge impact on our own lives and lives of those closest to us.

"The Nuts Challenge" was booked... MORE NUTS, 1 lap, 7km and 100 obstacles... This seemed too easy so we went for the MIXED NUTS and DOUBLE the distance the obstacles! #toughnuts

Now after we had the chance to sleep on it we've both realised we both really need to get into shape to stand a chance of making it around the course in one piece. Luckily we've given ourselves 11 months to get in shape and that in itself is a challenge as we've both 'let ourselves go'

Jamie is raising money for Macmillan and his JustGiving page can be found here:

So to entice you to be the biggest donor you will get to choose the outfits we wear, this will be selected on the 1st of August 2019 (To give us chance to organise) This will be managed by checking the just giving donations history. Jamie will have a biggest donor and so will I.

The conditions of the outfits are below.

  • Due to the nature of the task skin needs to be covered
  • Footwear is trainers
  • Gloves will be worn
  • Has to be able to fit through tunnels (Non bulky)
  • Be lightweight enough for the tasks
  • Any head gear needs to factor in GoPro mounting (a band that goes around the head with the GoPro attached)
  • Depending on the outfit thermals or appropriate clothing may need to be worn underneath (safety first)

Photos and Gopro footage will be provided post event through
various forms of Social Media afterwards for your viewing pleasure. Better still if you want to witness this event why not go and sign up yourself at https://www.thenutschallenge.co.uk and join us to provide support and help us around!
