So Tommy and I have been scouring the web looking for all sorts of wonderful events for us to enter. We started searching for different styles of physical events and came up with quite a few. It then dawned on us that in order to complete this challenge we need to be entering 2 challenges a month, which on face value sounds fine. When we then matched up the list of half marathons and duathalons and such we relised just how physically testing that would be, especially when we need to start, well, now!
A huge double door of opportunity was then opened to us. We never intended every single event to be about endurance, we just wanted the events to be properly organized and open to Joe public. With very little searching we found some fantastic events which we are going to take part in, including the World Stone Skimming Championships (oh yes it exists and is held in Scotland, see below), the British Pooh Sticks Championship and the Surrey Pairs Tiddlywinks Tournament.
How our minds have been broadened. We have successfully listed 30 events with a few to spare in cases of emergency. All that remains is for us to put the events into a calendar and start doing them!
