Right, so the culmination of 6 months worth of training is finally here! We are now on the eve of my 24 hour mental and physical adventure. Arguably the biggest yet, of my life. I am eagerly anticipating what I'm really made of, considering its meant to rain all weekend. I am just waiting to meet up with the rest of the crew before we leave Oxford for Herefordshire, specifically Eastnor Castle.
I made this adventure a little more personal for myself as well. I decided to use this opportunity to raise money in support of the Canadian Spinal Research Organisation. An organisation my friend Jason (who most of you know, suffered a C3 spinal cord injury in 2003 and is now a quadriplegic). He has been more than an inspiration to myself and our whole community. He is an ambassador for CSRO and in 2003, our high school girls hockey team named the Crone Cup game in honour and support of him. The game will celebrate its 10th annual next March. I was able to raise over $500 with the support of friends and family.
Off I go....can't wait to share the experience with you all! I'm sure ill win....I saw the babbas today, and Catherine made me homemade granola bars to take :)
Much love xo
