Short post today to give an update on the coming weekend. In June I am joining another 5 guys who I work with at Microsoft to take on the Caledonian Challenge. This is a 54 mile walk along the West Highland Way raising money for Foundation Scotland. Our team is called the Sleakit Beasties and this coming weekend will be our final training walk together.

We are heading from Edinburgh up to Fort William tonight aiming to arrive in Fort Bill by about 1am. We will then follow the WHW for about 35 miles down to Bridge of Orchy. The weather forecast is looking great, the team are all stoked up and ready to go. Should be a hoot!

I’ll post some pictures once I’m back, but you can follow us on Facebook and Twitter. If you’d like to donate to support us on the challenge, our fundraising page is the place to be.

Finally, this is our Mascot, if you’ve got any thoughts on a name for him, please get in touch.

Our mascot – but what’s his name?
