Name: Amy Perrin

Job:  National Account Manager, Quickslide

About me:  I have worked at Quickslide for 3 and a half years and live in Huddersfield with my boyfriend, Ash and puppy, Nala. Out of work, I enjoy a Saturday night out with the girls and also spending time with my family.

Cycling/Canoeing Experience:  This will be the first time I have sat in a canoe, and I probably haven’t been on a bike since childhood.

Motivation:  I spend a lot of time helping out in fundraising events fir my friends charity. I climber the three peaks a couple of years ago as part of this but this will be the biggest physical challenge of my life so far so I am definitely looking forward to it.

Fears: I have a fear of open water and the things that live in it so I am least looking forward to the canoeing.

Expectations:  I am trying not to think about it too much as I will end up talking myself out of it so I’m keeping a positive head on and looking forward to starting the training.

One critical item you will be taking with you:  Stabilisers.
