I went to a 3 Peaks briefing session yesterday evening. In brief, it consisted of 2 presentations.
The first was one Care International, the work they do, they way they operate, fund raising ideas and the support they can give us throughout the weeks leading up to the event. This presentation was both inspiring and unnerving. Inspiring because the work they do truly is amazing. Unnerving because it was a bit of a reality shock – we have about 10 weeks left to raise £1000 each and get into shape.
The second was about the event itself, what to expect before each walk (bag checks, safety talks, etc.), working as a team, how gruelling it’s going to be. Again, this talk was quite unnerving – we really do have some training to do. Personally I need to give up the cigarettes today, get myself on the step machine and start cycling to work again!
It's going to be hard, we only have ten weeks left, but I know we can all do it!!!
