And we're off
by Jessie
We're leaving in 10 minutes for Odawara.

Tonight, we'll stay at a hotel only a 15-minute walk from the Start Line. And tomorrow morning at 9:00am, we'll be off with 189 other teams!

We're excited, we're ready, we're nervous... all of that. Wish us luck, we'll need it!!

UPDATE: So far we've raised:
¥413,708 of ¥300,000

The Oxfam Trailwalker Challenge is over. We began the challenge on May 22 at 9am, finishing on May 24 at 3am. We did it!


Who, what, where, why?
We’re four foreigners attempting a 100km walk to raise ¥300,000 for some of the world's poorest people. Why? Well, we could easily just take your money and spend it on Mexican food or beer but we'd rather give it to Oxfam. On May 22 we'll begin our hike from Odawara City to Lake Yamanaka near Mt Fuji for the Oxfam Trailwalker Challenge.
