Hello friends!
WE DID IT!!!!!!! Thanks so much to everyone who has already sponsored - we're very touched by all the incredibly generous donations. You are all superstars. We will 100% make over £1000 for The Choir With No Name, which is AWESOME.
I've updated the photos with some pics so you can have a laugh at our expense. In summary, it was tough and muddy (go figure) - it was a hard slog, it took us 4 hours, and we ached a lot afterwards! It was also very fun.
A bit about Choir With No Name:
Choir With No Name brings together people who are or have been homeless; every week everyone gets together to sing fantastic songs and eat a home-cooked meal. We also perform gigs. As most of you will know, I’ve been volunteering for a year and feel really touched by how much it means to everyone who is part of it. For people who are on the edge of society, Choir is a safe and caring community. It brings people real happiness, meaningful support, and a huge boost to self-esteem; one of our members recently said that Choir is the best therapy she’s ever had. Please do check out their website: http://choirwithnoname.org/
What we did:
We did a Tough Mudder: it was an 11 mile muddy, extremely hilly run with 25 obstacles! We -
- Swam underwater through 10 tonnes of muddy ice
- Got electrocuted
- Crawled through really tiny tunnels and under barbed wire
- Jumped 12 feet into ice cold water
- Attempted hard-core monkey bars
- Climbed very high fences
Amongst other fear-inducing ridiculousness!
Thank you so much for all of your donations, lots of love xxx
