Team Guide Dogs

Just got back from Coniston in the Lake District. I did a sponsored event in aid of guide dogs, in a team of 6 we had to hike to the top of Old Man Coniston (a mountain!) which was about 10km, cycle 17km which was really up and downy and then do 3km in a kayak.

 

It was SO hard, much harder than I thought it would be - the mountain was the worst bit for me. I enjoyed the cycling even though it was really hard (had to get off at some of the hills but so did a lot of others) and they kayak was a blessed relief at the end just to rest my legs!!

 

Sleeping in a tent WASN'T fun - it was freezing and uncomfortable. Hats off to you lot who do camping for fun!

 

Edit: Between 3 teams of 6 people, we raised £8000+, and all the teams involved raised £120,000 in total. How good is that?!
