Coming back after Covid
Our last event as a team was Oxfam Trailwalker 2019. it was our fifth time doing that since 2013. We finished as a team of four in 19 and a half hours. We whittled the time down further with each attempt from the original effort of 26 hours.Covid is one of the reasons for such a long break.
We're also getting old. This could be the year when we're all in our fifties. It's close anyway.
