No specific connection - but it's a challenge. The climate, altitude and terrain will make it more of a challenge than we could do in England in the same amount of time, and having a challenge gives us more motivation and hopefully generates a higher amount of interest in the charity.

Incidentally, after the summer I'l be going back to London for uni - where there are much less hills and paths to walk on. I'll go to the gym but I was wondering if anyone knows anywhere good in London or near it for 'proper' walks?
