Been training quite hard for the last 2-3 months. Been building up gradually and did 10k for the first time today in 50 minutes so I know I can go the distance. Can’t wait till next Sunday (3rd May 09) to do the run.

How I did it: Went to Queenstown New Zealand during a backpacking trip. Did a tandem jump from 15000ft which had 60 seconds of freefall. The freefall was amazing. It doesn't feel like you're plummetting to the ground. Once the parachute opens it all goes quiet again and it's a gentle glide to the ground. It really is the best thing I have ever done!

How I did it: Backpacked New Zealand and hadn't actually planned to do a Bungy jump as just the thought of it scared the hell out of me. However, a few days into my trip and after speaking to a few other travellers I knew I had to do a bungy jump. So at the site of the original Bungy site (Kawarau Bridge, Queenstown) I jumped off and loved it. Amazingly I wasn't as nervous as I thought I would be. I was excited nervous but not terrified.

How I did it: Fkew into Auckland, then flew to Christchurch to start on the South Island. Wasn't sure what to do once there so ended up siging up with the Kiwi Experience to get round. very enjoyable (quite a young crowd though). Stayed in Kaikoura, Nelson, Westport, Franz josef, Wanaka, Queenstown, Dunedin, Invercargill, Te Anau, Wellington, Taupo, Rotorua and stopped off at many more places on the way. .
