Schools of thought and thoughts of school

Things are progressing nicely with the school in Kitandwe as you can see from the photos and even since these were taken roofing of the first block has begun, so thank you to Keith in Fields of Life Kampala for sending these on.
 
As we previously mentioned the general rule of thumb with Everest is that it takes about 6 months for the body to recover. As we started into our training for the Dublin City Marathon we took this with a pinch of salt. More recently and following medical advice we have decided with regret not to partake in this year’s marathon. We are delighted though that we have a team of about 12 who will be running on our behalf. We will of course be on hand to offer support and advice and you can follow their progress in the Evening Herald.
 
We have another team (this time including ourselves thankfully) who will be doing a Skydive on December 14th and we’ll keep you up-to-date on that closer to the time.
 
Please continue to support us in our fundraising and if you would like ideas on how you can do this please feel free to drop us a line info@everest2008.ie
