We're a group of 5 friends, 2 men and 3 women who live in Ynysybwl, South Wales. Rachael, Daf and Carla are all under 25 with Mark and Rachel (husband and wife) are 40 and 42 respectively. Rachel is the CEO of a local charity, and we're doing the Challenge to raise money for that. We're all reasonably fit but we've never done a Challenge like this before so we're all newbies! Really hoping to raise lots of money for a good cause and have fun whilst we're at it. We should also mention our designated driver, Dai, who's bad knees wont allow him to do the Challenge but we're very grateful he's contributing nonetheless.
