On the 13th of April we have a very special event that will commence at 7:00am. This event is the Burpee 500. The event requires participants to burpee and then do a long jump over and over again until they have completed a 500m (or 250m) course.
WHY ARE WE DOING THIS? Two reasons; firstly to raise funds for Camp Quality so they can continue there great work they do with children who are suffering from cancer. Secondly to show our support through walking the walk, by doing something that will make us suffer for a short time so we can appreciate what the kids go through.
Check out Camp Quality to see the great work they do: http://www.campquality.org.au/public/home.aspx
