<p><span style="font-family: Calibri; color: #000000;">CHALLENGE COMPLETE!!! :-D</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Calibri; color: #000000;">Thanks for visiting our JustGiving page and supporting us!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Calibri; color: #000000;">Between the 18<sup>th</sup>-26<sup>th</sup> November, we (Barry and Alex Thompson - whose wife and mother, Christine, is currently undergoing treatment for breast cancer) decided to participate in the International Running Challenge, Lanzarote.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Calibri; color: #000000;">The challenge comprised of four days of running in November; with a 10k trail run, 13k volcano run, 5k beach run, finishing with a half marathon.</span></p>
<p>Two weeks on, we are still feeling the effects - stiff legs, sore backs and blistered feet... However - what a fantastic experience!</p>
<p>It was most certainly a challenge, but as Chris's treatment now starts, what a fantastic way to smack negativity in the face. We have raised almost £6000 in total for our chosen charities and cannot thank you enough for your continued support.</p>
<p> </p>
