Pig Racing Night and a final training walk!

Wednesday evening saw a repeat of last year's Pig Racing evening, as organised by Ady, which was a great success and raised £381 towards our cause. A big thank you also to all our generous colleagues who attended and helped make the night a success!!

Two weeks to go until the big day now! We took the opportunity to fit in a final training walk to get used to a bit of night walking - the section we're hoping to do in the dark if we stick to our planned 28 hour schedule. If we can pull it off, this would improve our time last year by around 2 hours!

We set off from Hubberholme at 8:55pm, walking along the river Wharfe.

Darkness fell...















...but the adventurers carried on!















...into the night...

Stopping in Kettlewell briefly for a refuelling stop.

We met this strange looking fella in Kettlewell.

Finally arrived in Conistone at around 1:00am - Made fairly good time!

Now just got to finalise all the preparations for the main event! Getting quite scary now...
