New kids on the walk
Congratulations to the New Kids on the Walk team, Jenny, Ali, Jane, Sonia (Whitespacer) and Lorna who survived the swarms of midges to complete the 54 mile Caledonian Challenge course in 20 hours 4 mins (that's the official time, but it was 19 hours, 59 mins on their stopwatch!) and not far off the previous course record for a female team which was 19 hours 37 mins. Even more impressive they were the 4th all female team and 40th out of all 179 teams.
At the moment, they've raised over £4,000 and currently sit 2nd in the community league table for performance and fundraising and are still trying to raise a bit more.
They’d like to thank Scott and Reuben their fab support team who cooked pasta and chilli and kept morale up at key stages. The army also helped out at the 41 mile point and feeding them jam roly poly.
See if you fancy the challenge at www.caledonianchallenge.com.

Ooo, leftover #whitespacers haggis, neeps and tatties. That should keep me going until lunchtime proper!

About to blog our Burns lunch, but the boys have vetoed my nice haggis pic on the grounds that it "looks like poo". #Whitespacers #mature

The smell of haggis is wafting through the office and driving us all slightly doolally. #whitespacers
