What do you get when you find a Scouser, a German, an Argentinian and a Princess, send them out into the wilderness with just each other and their Kendal Mint Cake for company, and expect them to navigate 100km day and night across hostile terrain, being chased by trained killers in a race against the clock?

A Truly Random Experience is what!

OK, so we’re not actually going to be chased by trained killers, nor is the terrain particularly hostile, but there will be real Gurkhas there (albeit helping us rather than chasing us), and there will certainly be an abundance of Kendal Mint Cake.

It’s all for Trailwalker 2008 (19th - 20th July). Lexi “Adventure Princess,” Rene “The German,” Tom “The Scouser” and Santiago “The Argentine Saint,” have decided to undertake the mammoth task of walking the distance of 2½ marathons (100km) non-stop in less than 30 hours. To get a flavour of what we’re up against, click the video link to the left.

We pledge to raise £2000 in sponsorship for the event and all of the money raised goes to Oxfam and the Gurkha Welfare Trust. These are both really worthwhile charities that do a great job with the money raised by Randomers like us. For more information on both charities and what the sponsorship money will be supporting, click the links below.

Please support these charities by sponsoring us through this website. The site is fast, simple and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us; Oxfam Trailwalker will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your donation at no extra cost to you.

Remember, some people are born Random, some achieve Randomness and some have Randomness thrust upon them. And very occasionally, a Truly Random Experience occurs in its purest form. Be part of something Truly Random and donate today.
