Story
Hi, we are Julie and Anton.
In October this year we are racing in the Adventure
Racing World Championships – to be hosted in WILD GALICIA – spread across the most beautiful parts of Galicia, Spain.
The race will see us compete against 100 teams from
around the world as we navigate 630km of brutal but stunning landscape by trekking, kayaking, mountain biking, caving, coasteering, abseiling and orienteering, all the while being completely unsupported and racing against a clock that never stops for sleep. We are not allowed any assistance and have 168 hours to complete the course.
However gruelling the Race, there is always the opportunity to stop and make the fatigue, muscle pain, and cognitive difficulties fade away over time. Yet, if you are born or acquire a physical, neurological or intellectual disability – every day is a major challenge. It is for this reason we are partnering with the Chamwell Centre for this event.
The Chamwell Centre is a charity that understands that people with disability face challenges every day, and with this in mind, they have built a facility that is specifically designed to meet the needs of the disabled community through sport, therapy, play, leisure, and work experience – promoting their health and wellbeing.
