Heat Beads® Hot Shoe Shufflers – feet raising funds!

We’re all very excited although privately wondering what we have got ourselves in to. Walking 100kms in two days – that’s a huge ask!

AND www.whereis.com AGREES!

When the start and finish points were entered in this icon mapping site to show our planned trail the response was “Sorry, the route you selected is too long by foot”!
You’re not kidding!

On March 23 & 24 the Heat Beads® Hot Shoe Shufflers – Lee, Merilyn, Vanessa and Rob – participate in the gruelling 100km Oxfam Trailwalker.

The Oxfam Trailwalker is one of the toughest team events in the world. The challenge is to get your team of four across 100km of Australian bush in less than 48 hours – and no, it is not a relay! Each team member has to walk together for the full 100kms! The Heat Beads® Hot Shoe Shufflers are going for a 29 hour finish with a goal to raise more than $8000 for Oxfam’s great work in helping some of the world’s poorest people.

We’ll be keeping you updated with ‘tales of the trail’ – our weekly training news and progress.
