Well, it was emotional...
Three of the team made it over the line, it was a fantastic effort and we all had the most amazing time.
Photo's of the event are available by clicking here.
Thank you, and goodbye, from team Beertent.

OK then, matching handbags it is!
So, it’s only three days until we race the Gurkhas over a short 63 mile course. Personally I think we have a slim chance of winning, although I may have overdone the positive thinking and be getting just a bit ahead of myself.
I’m afraid we need to raise the bar again, as it seems that the humiliation of dresses and matching handbags isn’t enough for all those generous individuals sponsoring us. Although I haven’t spoken to the rest of the team, I’m sure that for £2,400 we would allow ourselves to be humiliated further. We’ll think of something suitable over the next couple of days and let you know.
Thanks again for all the fantastic support.

Just one week to go before the big day, and a huge thank you to all those who have sponsored us this far.
We said some time ago that if we ever managed to reach our sponsorship target of £1600 we would walk the first two stages of Trailwalker in dresses – bought from an Oxfam shop of course! So, here we are with nearly £2000 in the bank, and as you can see from the photo the frocks have been purchased.
We think that we look lovely, but for £2,200 we are prepared to carry matching handbags...
