Anyone just back from a long trip?

[bash]

Hi all,

I'm a medical student at St George's Hospital Medical School, London. I'm interested in the relationship between exertion, acclimatisation and health.

I need volunteers who have been on physically demanding holidays at any altitude so that I cam compare those who have been active high-up to those who have been active low-down. If you've been away recently and have got five minutes to answer a quick questionnaire it would be a massive help:

It's designed as one questionnaire per trip so if you've recently been away to say, the Alps and the Himalayas, then filling it in twice would be ideal.

Feel free to plaster this link all over any suitable websites/forums or forward it to any mates you've got who are just back from an expedition. Really appreciate it.

Cheers
Tom

Cheers. I'll be about although as a rock climber who's only just getting into whole skiing thing it might be a while before I can contribute too much! Great site - need more like this for UK areas.

I don't know if you've seen it before or not, but snowheads.com seems to have pretty active forums and are based in the UK...

BTW, welcome to the forums!
