Less than a week to go!
19 November 2015
Hi everyone,
We have been flat-out with fundraising, organising NZ tracksuits, booking accommodation, gluing more diamantes onto our costumes, and most importantly, training as hard as we can for the World Champs.
We take off in less than a week, so we're down to our final preparation. At every training we're working on increasing our intensity and fitness, making sure we're completely in time with each other, and having a good laugh along the way.
Last night we had a very successful Quiz Night fundraiser and had a fantastic turn-out! We hope everyone had as much fun as we did, and the auction went really well (and one lucky guy went home very stoked to win the date of his dreams with Melissa!).
A few weeks ago Seven Sharp ran a story about our trio which definitely helped spread the word about our awesome sport, and show friends and family what it is that we do when we say we're off to training!

We have been blown away by the amount of support we've received - from workmates rallying their mates to come along to our quiz night, friends and family donating goodies for our raffle, physios and personal trainers offering a lot of encouragement, aerobics friends attending trainings to provide us with valuable feedback, to the amazing generosity we've seen through our Givealittle page.
As we pack our suitcases, we are starting to reflect on our journey to Martinique. We have faced many challenges along the way, but that is what makes this trip-of-a-lifetime so special and so rewarding.
With high kicks and determination to make you all proud,
MDK XOXO
