the technology trailer part 2...

For those of you who won't be joining us in China, you can still take part in the Trek. You can see where we have been, what we are doing, great pics of the landscape (and of the exhausted trekkers!)... you can even make comments. Click here to see how it works!

the ££££ update...

I am just past the half way mark! I have raised £1267 of my £2500 goal.

Please help me reach my goal by visiting my justgiving site and making a donation. The kids are counting on you!

my holiday training...

or lack thereof I should say! As predicted, my training this past week consisted of running after my nephews and turning my pasty white skin a nice golden colour! Have a look at my holiday pics .

While laying on the beach is an enormous sacrifice, I have indeed fallen behind on my training and will have to work extra hard to catch up. Unfortunately, the weather does not seem to be co-operating with me, so I will have to limit my training to indoor gym activities :-( Wish me luck.

It seems my fellow geeks have been very busy lately. Check out the map and pics of the practice walk. Job well done for those who managed to make it.

the 2nd practice walk...

Tomorrow is the big day. While I can definitely use the practice, I won't be able to make it. I'll be on a plane on my way to visit the family in Miami. I guess I shouldn't complain - I will be basking in the glorious sun!

Best of luck to the rest of the trekkers!

I haven't been able to get much trekking in because of the horrific weather of recent weeks. BUT I have stepped up my kung fu training to 4 times a week... ninjas beware!

My training schedule for the next week will involve running after my 2 nephews (the oldest one loves to throw the ball miles away to make me go after it - not cute!) and 10 hour days at Universal Studios in Orlando. Wish me luck!
