On 29th September 2013, Sarah Dawkins, Debby Bourne, Becki Dovey, Tania Perez and Leanne Watkins took part in the Men’s Health Survival of the Fittest event in Cardiff, in memory of Leanne Haddrell.
The event was amazing – it was tough, but great fun! I would advise everyone to give it a go.
We started by climbing over 15ft hay bales and subsequently found ourselves going through a wire maze; jumping traffic bollards; running through skips; climbing over barriers; carrying traffic cones; crawling under cargo nets; swinging on ropes; wading waist-high through the River Taff; climbing two 8ft walls; using monkey bars; going up and down steps in the Millennium Stadium; jumping on and off the back of a lorry; crawling through tunnels; sliding down wood planks; bouncing through inflatables; and then to finish with, a 10ft wall followed by a jump into a pool before crossing the finish line.
It’s safe to say we had been through it all!
