Indoor Climbing: Check!

1st March Challenge Complete!

So guess what I did yesterday? I climbed (the equivalent) of the Empire State Building! :)

As per our previous post, we kicked off our Challenging CF activities with an indoor climbing challenge at Kilnworx. It was a lot harder than I expected and every single ounce of our bodies may be in pain today but the feeling we got when finishing the last of the 1000m was priceless! The team at Kilnworx was lovely and so helpful, I doubt we could've taken on this 'mountain' task without their support - see what I did there? Mountain, climbing #punlove. Massive thanks to Jin and everyone at Kilnworx, we're definitely hooked on indoor climbing now -as soon as the blisters heal! :)


This was before we actually started climbing, hence the painless smiles on our faces
 We've decided to start our first month of challenges as we mean to go on so March is a double whammy - we've got indoor skydiving booked for Wednesday 26th! As we wanted the indoor climb to prepare us for taking on Snowdon, this will hopefully help prepare for Georgie's ACTUAL SKYDIVE this summer. Hear that folks? She is going to jump out of an actual real life plane. Watch this space for more info on skydiving front.
 
In the meantime, here are the promised snaps of us 'dangling' from walls:
 

 
 
 
 
 





 
Despite the popular stereotype that climbing is a very glamorous sport, we've got first HAND experience proving the contrary #punlove

 
Thank you so much for your continued support, you've helped us reach 15% of our target but we've still got a long way to go. The next nine months will be packed full with new challenges - from the aforementioned skydiving to running and baking so stay tuned!

Much love,
Maria, Noni, Georgie (and Debbie!)
