Story

Thank you for visiting our sponsorship page!

Our two teams of >40's (aka 'The Biddies' - Wendy, Colin, Becca and Kay) and <40's (aka 'The Bairns' - Jake, Ross, Lauren and Dec) will be taking on an incredible challenge journeying through the majestic mountains of the beautiful Lake District National Park. We will complete a course consisting of a 44km off-road cycle, a 9km hike up to 803m on The Old Man of Coniston and finally a 3km kayak. Between dawn and dusk, racing the sun on this triathlon-style adventure charity fundraising challenge - what could possibly go wrong?!
