"Oxfam Trailwalker was fantastic. Thanks to Oxfam for the privilege of being there. The excitement, the anticipation and the will to succeed to complete the 100km was awesome. People were awesome with their encouragement and support"

"We did it! We walked 100km! I've lost my voice from all the singing and shouting through the day and night (and day again), and our feet collectively hurt - what an awesome time!" Enviroservices, Trailwalker 2008
" WE DID IT!!! We feel exhausted, exhilarated, and so very proud. We are a bunch of Real Estate Agents in our 40s & 50s (correction: have just discovered our team leader is 60) who got talked into Trailwalker over Christmas drinks. We are rising to the challenge and looking forward to contributing to Oxfam's wonderful work. We are certainly not athletes, and since starting training have had numerous blisters & aches, but we are real estate agents, and we are persistent" Lot 4, 2008
