My story

We made it, just!

And yes, Michelle was in far better shape and condition at the end than her Dad.

It was really tough going in the heat and the water stations could not come quick enough. Knowing I had the support of you all, the wonderful staff at Dyslexia Action and of course Michelle really spurred me on over those final few miles - when my mind and body were clearly telling me there was an easier and more relaxing option or two for spending such a hot spring day in London.

Thank you once again for all your support and the generous donations for Dyslexia Action for which we are all very grateful.

Miles and Michelle
