2015 Alcatraz Challenge · 16 August 2015

Our Foundation's mission is to find, grow and connect the next generation of confident, globally-minded business leaders determined to enhance Scotland’s economic prospects. We do this through the Saltire Scholar Programme for high-potential students, and our membership for senior business leaders.

Story

Okay, so we've had a bit of a crazy moment and decided to do the Alcatraz Challenge event. It's an aquathlon and we'll be doing it as a relay team. Alice will be swimming 2 miles from Alcatraz Island to the East Beach of Crissy Field in San Francisco (the hard bit). Then once she's finished, Ross will be running 7 miles across the Golden Gate Bridge and back. We're raising money for the Saltire Foundation who are responsible for us being in the States this summer. They provide opportunities for Scottish students to get placements all over the world and do loads of other pretty amazing stuff, but, because they're a charity, they can't do any of it without the support of donors. 

Their page is here: http://www.saltirefoundation.com/

And the page for the event is here: http://www.tricalifornia.com/index.cfm/ALChal2015-course_descriptions.htm

It's going to be super tough (and cold and sharky) but we cannot wait and Alice promises to try and not die or get eaten.
