Story
Well it's official, I have finally lost my marbles! My team and myself have agreed to enter this years Megahike, a 50 mile, 24 hour walk of hell. Well the first few miles should be nice but the last 40 odd could be an issue.
We have 24 hours to complete this challenge but the serious competition is to beat the sun, we set off at dawn and aim to complete the course by sunset. Quite frankly walking the 50 miles will be tough enough but trying to do it in 17 hours! Hmmmm. Anyway, as a company (Micro Peripherals) we have 4 teams committed (or should be!) to this challenge so the competition is hot and we are all out to beat the bosses team! Our support crews will be there at each checkpoint to spur us on and provide the plasters!
The money raised will be going to MedEquip4Kids to help provide equipment and improve the environment for children in hospitals across the North of England.
Please please please dig deep to help this worthwhile cause and look out for us at the event on the 26th June 2010, our team name........ "Are we there yet?" of course! :o)
The photos shown are of all the teams who are competing in the Megahike on one of our training walks. We completed the Yorkshire 3 Peaks on the 15th May in a very respectable 11 hours.
May I just say a huge thank you to the Dunkenhalgh Hotel, Clayton-Le-Moors, Accrington for putting together some wonderful packages for us to auction to enable us to support our chosen charities.
