Team member Heather Easton is encouraging runners to register as soon as possible to take advantage of the early bird discount before it ends on June 30.
The registration fee to join the trek and raise funds for East Timor is only $60 per person or $30 for children under 18. On July 1 the registration fee will rise to $80 per person, $40 for children under 18.
The Wander Women are already training together on Sunday mornings for their 30km trek. They are going to walk different sections of the trek route each time they get together.
They also have a fundraising tactic that they are happy to share. As Ms Easton explained, they are going to ask everyone they meet to sponsor them for the small amount of $5.
The group decided that the Blue Mountains Trek for Timor would be a fabulous fun way to spend time together, keep their fitness up during the cold of a Blue Mountains winter, and to raise funds that will go directly to a great cause. Their partners are going to be their support team, and look after their children for the day.
