Update Training

Tuesday 12th Mar

Hello, fellow adventurers! It's time for a quick update on our journey as we gear up for the exciting trek that lies ahead. The recent heatwave in Adelaide has proven to be an unexpected ally, providing us with excellent conditions to simulate the challenging weather we might face during our upcoming expedition.

Our training regimen has been nothing short of intense, with walks ranging from 5kms to a whopping 30kms on weekends. The early morning starts, coupled with the scorching heat, have been crucial in preparing us for the demanding conditions that await. Carrying 15kgs in our 70-litre backpacks during each walk has become the norm, inching us closer to our target weight of 20kgs for the trek.

As we diligently check off the items on our packing list, we're thrilled to announce that 95% of our supplies have been secured and packed into our backpacks. The final few essentials are on their way, and the anticipation is building as we visualize ourselves conquering each step of the trail.

But our training doesn't stop there. Beyond the dusty tracks and under the scorching sun, we've been hitting the gym for personalized weight programs. Strengthening our core is paramount, especially since we've chosen to forgo the luxury of porters. The gym sessions are equipping us with the resilience and strength needed to carry the weight of our supplies and fulfill the challenges that lie ahead.

In the spirit of community support, we're excited to share a fantastic opportunity with you all. Our local Golden Grove Tavern, affectionately known as "The Grove," is extending a helping hand to our cause. During the entire month of March, they're offering a generous 10% of their schnitzels proceeds going towards our campaign.

So, if you're looking for a great meal and a chance to contribute to our adventure, be sure to drop by The Grove. Your support means the world to us, and we can't wait to share the tales of our journey with all of you.

Stay tuned for more updates as we inch closer to our grand adventure. Until then, lace up your boots and join us in spirit as we conquer each training session, one step at a time.
