I met some of the trekkers for the first time at Charlton Court (Sally Gunnell's conference facility), an excellent base for our walk in Stenying. I was a bit nervous at first as I was about to meet the people I will be spending over a week with in China. Everyone was great! You can meet them all here and view the rest of the pics from our walk here.
I've never actually been trekking before - so naturally I have no gear. I turned up in gym clothes and trainers and quizzed everyone on advice about what gear to get. A shopping excursion will soon follow.
Ok, I am in relatively good shape. I train for 1.5 hours 2 - 3 per week in martial arts (Northern Style Shaolin Kung Fu). I was hoping it would count for something. Unless ninjas start popping out of trees... Let's just say keeping pace uphill is painful! I have some serious training to do.
