Thanks for visiting the ZigZag Races the Sun team fundraising page.

In June 2019, a group of 13 over 40 year old women from Zig Zag Women's Fitness & Motivation®, Stratford Upon Avon will race the sun (and other teams) to conquer the UK’s largest natural monument in aid of sick children and babies.

Kicking off from the Digeddi Wildlife Campsite near Glasbury, we start our day with a 22km cycle up and along the Gospel Pass, which, at 551 metres above sea level, is Wales’ highest road. Arriving into Llanthony, we swap our bikes for hiking boots and tackle a 22km trek along the Haterall Ridge of the Black Mountains, and down into the Wye Valley until we finally reach Glasbury.

The last of the three activities consists of paddling 3.4km in two-seater sit-on-top canoes down River Wye to our base – and finish line –  the Digeddi Wildlife Campsite!

All funds raised by the challenge will support the work of children's charity Action Medical Research, offering hope to the many thousands of families across the UK, who are dealing with the trauma of a baby born too early, striving to support a child affected by disability, or facing the challenge of caring for a child with a rare and devastating disease for which there is no cure.
