This was always going to be an intrepid journey. It was the first time we had done physical exercise for as far back as either of us could remember. We donned crampons along with Alex and Zoe and moved up the glacier. It was amazing how easily you could move on the ice with just some metal pegs stuck to your feet (and with a guide cutting steps for you as you walked everywhere). It made up for what schooling missed in Geography and we are now bonafide experts on glacial movement.
