Songs, sweat and tears of laughter
by rae
After reading Ken's post I have to say: maybe we should place bets on where and when Jessie will descend into her giggle-fest along the hike? It was checkpoints 5-6 during our 50km hike from checkpoints 4-7 of the Oxfam hike. I think there's a strong chance it will be there again. I mean, that winding road goes on forever. But, there's also a strong possibility it will be around 5am on Saturday morning when the sun comes up through the haze and we finally see how sweaty and gross we are and Jeff starts talking about yoga.

Also: bets on which songs Jeff will rip off. Last time it was the Proclaimers "I Would Walk 500 Miles", and don't forget Afroman's "Because I Got High." This time we'll have music (thanks to mini-speakers) so there are endless possibilities. Oh, the possibilities...

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.
