Welcome to The Wall 2012 Challenge! For those that completed the Three Peaks Challenge last year then this is the moment you have all been waiting for!
Some of you will already know that this years challenge is to complete Hadrian's Wall. The challenge being to complete this within 4 days! Now this may sound easy but let us tell you it's not for the faint hearted, it's basically completing a marathon a day for three days and then a half marathon on the last day but no running is involved it's all walking.
The Challenge will commence on Friday 6 July and finish on Monday 9 July 2012. We will start in Newcastle and finish in Bowness-on-Solway which is walking from one side of England to the other (East to West). There are no mountains involved in this one but it's still challenging terrain over 84 miles following the path of Hadrian's Wall.
The idea at the moment is meet in Newcastle on Thursday 5 July in the evening after you have finished work, staying over in a hotel and commencing the challenge early the following morning. So Wolfpack you must be on best behaviour!
During the challenge you will be camping in the great outdoors for three nights at designated camp sites along the route and on the final evening it will be your choice to make your way back home or to stay over an extra night.
