Val De Terres Everest Challenge.
This walking event will take participants around the Le Val de Terres, George Road, Havelet circuit. Each lap is 1.6KM long and 77M elevation, with a total of 115 laps, which is the equivalent total height of Mount Everest (8848M) upon completion.
The challenge is set to run for 30 days, commencing on 11th May.
A Strava page will be available for all participants to keep track of their progress, as well as a Facebook page to see the team’s progress, organise teaming up times, and support each other.
This would be a perfect opportunity to get some structured training for the Rotary Walk on the 15th June which allows 1 week to taper training.
Entrants can do this in as part of a relay teams, as pairs, or with family members, dividing the overall laps between them should they wish.
We are raising funds for the Sarah Groves Foundation, which this year will be making a sizeable contribution to the Priaulx Premature Baby Foundation. More information about these incredible causes can be found at the following: http://sarahgroves.org/ and www.ppbf.org.gg/
We are aiming for every participant to achieve the £115 via their Justgiving page (£1 per lap). Upon completion, participants will receive a corticated/medal and an invitation to the post-event social.
This event will offer you a truly attainable but challenging goal, assist in improved fitness and body composition, as well as have you feeling great both physically and mentally.
To enter, please create your JustGiving page and pay the £15 entry by donating this to your JustGiving account. Instructions to do this are available on the Mount Everest Walking Challenge Facebook page.
We look forward to having you all with us on what promises to be an incredible event and achievement to kick off the summer! Your Sherpa status awaits you!
Thank you
