Hi there. I’m Ondrej, an auditor working for Ernst & Young in London.

I joined the Challenge because I thought it’s a worthwhile cause and it will make me do something I would normally not get to do – go around organising fundraising events and asking strangers for donations! I’ve never really taken part in fundraising on this scale, so I am quite thrilled (and frightened!) by the whole undertaking. I’m confident we can do it but appreciate it will involve a lot of effort.

I enjoy all outdoors activities, cycling, hiking, rafting in particular, so this Challenge really strikes a chord with me. I’m already looking forward to the race itself but there is a lot of fundraising and training to get through before we get there.
