18:07 Reach 4 the Peaks Ski Marathon |
So you love skiing? You are passionate about
snowboarding? And are wondering why all the juicy charity events are
only available for lycra clad cyclists or lunatic long distance
runners? Well now is your chance to raise money for your favourite
charity doing your favourite sport at the same time – heaven awaits!
The Reach 4 the Peaks Ski Marathon is a charity event on snow.
You can ski it, snowboard it, monoboard it, do it on blades – whatever
works for you as long as you undertake to be fit enough on your mode of
transport to complete the challenge.
Along the way we will be attempting to summit 24 peaks in 4
ski regions in Austria. We will take the Saalbach Hinterglemm Ski
Circus by storm first and then transfer to the Zell am See area where
we will start at one end of the crescent and finish at the other taking
in 13 peaks as we go. Tradition has it that we always walk one as well
– well it is a challenge! The next day we transfer to the beautiful
Hoch Konig Ski area where we ski like the wind all the way to Muhlbach
before transferring to our finish resorts, Badgastein and Badhofgastein
to rack up our total 24 peaks.
Sound like fun? It will be but most of all, like a normal
marathon, it will be hard work as well. You will be following local
guides in groups of no more than 10 people. There’ll be no stopping to
read piste maps for a breather; no having cups of hot chocolate when
it’s cold; no cool beer when it’s hot. Just skiing – from when the
lifts open to when the lifts close… doing your favourite sport…
remember how much you love it?! Now that’s what we call
sponsorshipworthy!
