"They're (Telethon Adventurers) helping to find a cure for children's brain cancer so it's something I thought I should be a part of and give back," she said.

"I've had so many friends pass away from brain cancer, it's so common in kids. It's the number one killer in kids and not many people know that."

Chloe's dad Rob will join her this weekend.

"When I finish, Ill feel like I've achieved so much and Ill be really proud of myself," Chloe said.
