Sunday we all went up to the Sue Ryder Home on Leckhampton Lane to meet with the fundraising contact - Lucy. We had a tour of the grounds and discussed some fund raising ideas....
Being men the thoughts turned to something a bit extreme and the word endurance was mentioned...it started as why don't we swim the channel as a relay team in a pool? 23.89miles between the 4 of us. Spreadsheet constructed and claculation done it didn't seem far enough or extreme enough.
That's when it evolved to doing the Arch to Arc triathlon as a relay in the gym.
The Arch to Arc is an extreme triathlon where you start at Marble Arch in London, run the 89miles to Dover where you then swim the 23.89miles of the English Channel before cycling the 179miles to the Arc de Triomphe in Paris.
With three of the team being Esporta members that is the venue of choice assuming that they will allow this to take place..
Watch this space - we'll do something extreme just a case of what? If you've got any ideas post them on here in the comments!
