Hello Everyone, I have created this page so you can help me raise as much money for breast cancer research as possible (please dig deep).
As most of you know my beautiful mum was diagnosed with breast cancer in June last year. I wanted to do something extremely challenging that would raise as much money for this illness as I could. I did some research as to what I could do that would encourage people to donate to this cause. The 3 Peak Challenge popped up and I thought, yep, that will be difficult. Just as I was about to click on the page I noticed one below it: 24 PEAKS IN 24 HOURS. Obviously I thought this was some sort of joke, but I went ahead and clicked on it anyway.
As the challenge indicates, I will be covering 24 peaks over a distance of 52km. It is broken down into two stages: first, hiking up 28km of very difficult terrain over a 12 hour period. I will then get 6 hours sleep to wake up to walking another 26km over 12 hours.
As much as I wish it was, this is not a joke and I have signed up to complete this challenge on the 3rd October, 2015.
24 peaks in 24 hours doesn't come close to what cancer patients have to endure, so we need to work together to try and beat it. Please donate as little or as much as you can, I would appreciate it so so much. I will be doing this challenge not only for mum but for everyone that has been a victim to this disease. Donate for the people you love and
to try and prevent it from happening to anyone else. |
