2008 Mark Webber Pure Tasmania Challenge: Wednesday 19 - Sunday 23 November 2008

Welcome to the Mark Webber Pure Tasmania Challenge

The Mark Webber Pure Tasmania Challenge (MWPTC) was inspired by the Australian Formula One driver with a dream to create an event that combined his love of keeping fit in the great outdoors, with raising funds for Australian charity organizations.

The Challenge, an annual event, is held in one of the world's best adventure playgrounds - Tasmania. Competed on a course which is re designed each year the event could begin around the jagged contours and icy streams of Cradle Mountain, pass through the white sandy beaches of Freycinet National Park and visit the historic village of Strahan, all the time delivering competitors an experience of a lifetime.

Hi Warren,
I am so proud of you, you are doing really well staying in there, I look forward to the updates and I am feeling a smidgen of your pain with you as I read them. Keep up the happy thoughts when it burns, and think of the bigger picture (The Leukaemia Foundation) not to mention a mammoth personal achievement. Take care.
Love Sandra

Well done so far Mark.
It makes "Ride to the Horns" look easy.

I'm just sorry I can't be there in Tasmania to photograph this event too! Keep up the good work and we'll catch up with you back at the pub in the UK.
Karen & Steve Thomas
