Story
I have joined the El Camino Trek!! Not only will I discover the beauty of Spain and
go on an adventure of a lifetime, but I will be raising vital funds for
the RACGP Foundation.
I have to fundraise $3,500 to be able to participate in this challenge.
The
challenge will consist of trekking for 5 days (up to 28kms each day)
along the El Camino track from Sarria to Santiago de Compostela.
This will be a real challenge - as you can see from the photo above, I got a blister after walking for 1 hour the last time I did a long walk. If that was after 1 hour, goodness knows how I'll go for 6-8 hours, but therein lies the challenge!
My participation in this activity will help the RACGP Foundation to support general practice reserach that will assist GPs in making more informed evidence-based decisions about patient care.
General practice impacts on the health of all Australians - 83% of the Australian community visit a GP each year, and many treatments in primary care have a major impact on people's lives. Research is essential to improving the quality of this care.
