Charity events - a challenge?

IanH

We are all asked at various times to sponsor people who are doing events for charity. But what bugs me is when the event is dead easy and really not a challenge.

I'm thinking for example - walking a mile (by someone who is fit and healthy), sliding down a zip wire (something that kids do for fun), a parachute jump (basically, you are paying for them to have fun).......etc.

I think the event should be something that is going to stretch you, that there is a possiblility that you might not achieve it......

What do you think?
