Finished the walk! 12 hours and 22 miles + 2 blisters. Thanks for support.

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>On 1st July 1916,&nbsp;the British Army&nbsp;had its worst day&nbsp;in history, suffering 60,000 casualties.&nbsp;Throughout the night&nbsp;of 30th June to 1st July this year , 2011, we are&nbsp;walking the entire 21 miles of the battle front that was the Somme&nbsp;in&nbsp;1916. We hope to raise some money while we walk overnight&nbsp;for several charities.</p> <p>British Soldiers of today still&nbsp;face hardship, injury or worse&nbsp;on our behalf. The Royal Anglian Regiment (my old TA unit) Benevelont Fund raises money for soldiers, families and dependants from this region to help them when in distress, hardship&nbsp;or after injury.</p> <p>Please dig deep and donate now. Thanks, Julian</p>
