Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On the 6th December 2012 I am arranging a 24 hour bleep test. Hopefully we will be able to get 20 teams made up of 4 people. I am a member of the RAF, and every year we have to pass our fitness test. Part of our test is the “bleep” test, this test involves continuous running between two lines 20m apart in time to recorded beeps.

A member of each team will take the bleep test and pass their level, so every time there are 20 people taking the test. Once every one from the 4 has passed their test the next member from each team will take their test and so on. This means that within the hour each member of the team will have passed the test. Once the next hour starts the process is repeated until every member of the team will have taken the test 24 times. A total of approximately 40,000 metres in total per person.

My Uncle, Terry Long was under the care at Weston Hospicecare at the end of 2011 but sadly passed away on the 23 of November. My Aunty and cousins said they showed great care during that difficult time, so I would like to complete this event for them. Please give generously.
