The Vet Charity Challenge ( http://www.questtgo.com/vcc12 ) is a one-day event which pulls together a series of physical tasks with puzzle-solving challenges along the way.

Donna, Karen, Laura and Chris are taking part in this challenge to raise money for Pet Blood Bank UK. Pet Blood Bank UK is a charity that provides a national canine blood bank. Its products and services are available to all UK veterinary professionals.

The challenge involves three key disciplines trail running, mountain biking and kayaking.

For each stage there are a range of checkpoints to visit. The challenge isn’t simply a physical challenge it also requires teams to use their brains. Each stage has a strategic theme and involves cerebral puzzles as well as physical challenges.

Many teams reach 50-75% of the checkpoints. Only the strongest teams will cover all the checkpoints in any stage and in so doing cover distances of about 10-20 km trail running, 20-30 km mountain biking and 4-7 km of kayaking.

We hope to reach them all!

So please dig deep and donate now.
