A team of walkers will take part in a 100km cross-country challenge to raise money for the Gurkhas.
Penny Bassett, and her husband, Tim Lee, from Iffley Road, Oxford, and their friend Steve Williams, from Botley, are training for one of the country's toughest team tests, Trailwalker UK.
They must cover a 100km course across the South Downs in less than 30 hours.
Money raised by the challenge will go to the Gurkha Welfare Trust, which helps Gurkha ex-servicemen and their families and communities in Nepal.
Some of the proceeds will also go to Oxfam, which hopes others will join the event on July 6 and 7.
The deadline for entries is May 31. Call 0870 011045 for details.
