Did you make a resolution to get fit in 2010? Why not help yourself stick to it by setting yourself the challenge of entering a sporting event, while raising money for a great cause? This year we are launching the Golden Granite Challenge – an initiative that’s all about people taking on various challenges, carrying with them a piece of granite from a quarry in Bangalore India, and using it to raise funds for 40K. Alternatively, if you aren’t the next Lance Armstrong, a challenge doesn’t always have to be physical! Why not give up smoking/ chocolate/alcohol, pledge to walk to work everyday, or don’t talk for 24 hours? You can either join in on a publically organised event or create your own unique one. To launch the campaign, we’ve had some crazy nutters put their hands up to do three crazy events.. Justin Jones - 82km Ultra Marathon through the rugged and beautiful Cradle Mountains National Park Alex Coombes - 11km epic Bridge to Beach ocean swim from the Sydney Harbour Bridge to Manly on Sunday 7th March Stewart Wood and Lachlan Youll - 100km run through the Blue Mountains in the NorthFace 100. |
