THE NEXT BIG CHARITY CHALLENGES –
By Mountain, By Road, By Turf, By Sand
Craig will be embarking on the following Challenges to raise vital funds
for the Ravenwood Children’s Trust
CHALLENGE 1 - By Mountain –
National Three Peaks Challenge
Due to take place on 10th July, this is a mighty challenge that involves
climbing the three
highest peaks, respectively, in England, Wales and Scotland and all
within 24 hours.
The Peaks are:
• Snowdon (Wales – 1085 metres high)
• Scafell Pike (England – 978 metres high)
• Ben Nevis (Scotland – 1344 metres high)
In a team of eight, timing is everything and we only have a few hours
for each mountain -
target times are suggested as around 4 hours for Snowdon and 5 hours
each for Ben Nevis
and Scafell Pike.
With a designated driver to travel between mountains enabling me
to sleep on route.
Training is well underway and I am confident I will succeed…
CHALLENGE 2 - By Road
10k Run
The very next day after the three peaks challenge (Sunday 12th July)
Craig will be running the
Official ASICS British 10K London run, raising money for the Rainbow
Trust Children’s
Charity. It is a popular event that takes runners past many of central
London’s famous
historic landmarks, they are expecting over 26,000 runners.
CHALLENGE 3 - By Turf

Newmarket Town Plate
On 29th August Craig will hopefully be racing in the
Newmarket Town Plate, assuming his horse survives the
training sessions and he loses nearly two stone in weight.
The race is for amateur jockeys, it is over 3 miles 6
furlongs in length and was founded back in 1665 by King
Charles II. By chance my horse is called ‘Run of Kings’
so fingers crossed he will live up to his name…
CHALLENGE 4 -
By Trail
Enduro India
Travelling with a team of motorbikers through the wilds of the Western
Ghats in India, visiting remote villages that are benefitting from our
previous donations.
CHALLENGE 5 - By Sand
Marathon Des Sable 2010
Known as the toughest race on earth this is the ultimate endurance
race across the Sahara Desert in Morocco and pushes contestants
to their absolute limits. Nicknamed the Sand Marathon it covers
151 miles over just 6 days (the equivalent to running nearly 6
marathons back-to-back). In addition, competitors have to carry
everything they will need to survive - it really is survival of the
fittest.
Craig plans to undertake this challenge next year from 1st - 12th April
and has started training
already - he is determined to raise as much money as he can for the
Ravenwood Children’s Trust.
Charity Raffle Tickets
Throughout the year we are also selling raffle tickets to raise more
money for the Trust.
There will be some really fantastic prizes for you all to enjoy. The
winners will be drawn
At the New Year’s Eve party at Ravenwood , so if you can make the party
you could be in for a
surprise… Raffle tickets cost £10 each and are available from
reception.
