She is in third place overall, which is a monumental achievement, beating most of the men in the race. Congratulations to Karen. At present she raised nearly $1,000 for the Jaden Foundation while doing this trip.

Belize Temple to Temple Biking Race

Karen Turner (manager of the Belize Jungle Dome and Green Dragon Adventure Travel) our intrepid adventurer has signed up for the Temple to Temple Biking race in Belize.

Following the path of the ancient Mayans more than one and a half thousand years ago, Temple to Temple is the world’s first bike race/tour linking the great temples of Lubaantun to Caracol, Belize.



The course lasts 7 Days following a grueling 750km, encompassing a mental and physical journey through a magical corner of the world that’s rich in ecology, culture, and history.

Karen has been sponsored by the Belize Jungle Dome to enter the race, plus she is taking the opportunity to use this physical endeavour to raise money for the Jaden Foundation, our charity in Belize aiding children to get a better education.

Anyone interested in Sponsoring Karen can email her at Karen@greendragonbelize.com.

Taken from the Bikehike website

"This week-long sports extravaganza in Belize highlights the best this tiny country offers. We climb the steps of the Xunantunich ruins, ride horses through tangled jungles, float peacefully on innertubes through Mayan caves, rappel safely into the depths of the jungle, pedal along dirt trails in tropical forests and paddle kayaks on a calm and pristine river. Our final days are spent on the relaxing beaches of Ambergris Caye where we snorkel in translucent seas with opportunities to see manatees, nurse sharks and string rays, amongst other tropical marine life"
