Story

We did it!

Jason managed 4hrs 25 mins with cramp and I did it in 5hrs and 15mins with a sore hip.

It was a truly amazing experience. Firstly we were very lucky with the weather, blue skies and the sun shining.

The support along the route was incredible, it was as if we were running through a street party.  Very different from our runs through Richmond park on our own.

Thank you all so much for all your wonderful support. It has made this experience magical.

Our chosen charity is Stella's School Scheme. Jason's sister Sally is quite involved. It's a small charity, so all that you give will be used directly by the school. They currently need funding to improve the solar power system that they have. They also need money to pay for local teachers and always they need the money for the children to come to the school. There are currently 67 children waiting for sponsors, to continue with their education.

Whatever you can give will make a huge difference to these children's lives. 

Thank you very much
