New in 2008

I don't have it in me to do a review of 2007 - maybe later. So instead I'll tell you about something big I have coming up in 2008. In July I'll join 3 of my friends to walk 100 kilometers across southern England (along the South Downs Way). It's called Trailwalker 2008 and it is in support of Oxfam. Oxfam is a charity that fights poverty by campaigning for change, doing development work and emergency relief work. You can read more about their work here.


My team (The Dancing Queens) has committed to raising £1,500 or $3,000 for the event. You can support us by donating online at this website. I've added a new icon to the left on my blog on the left where you can also click to donate and see my progress. I'm just starting my fundraising so you can be the first one to donate! Last year the event raised over £1MM. It might not end poverty but we can make a difference.

Hiking 2 1/2 marathons in 30 hours will be quite an adventure but I'm looking forward to it.
