Story
WE DID IT! After 9 hours of nearly continuous walking (our lead walker setting an ambitious pace of ave 3.5 miles p/hr) we finished our 25 mile walk or, I should say, hike, for Cancer Research and Article 25.
The weather was extremely kind and the scenery beautiful which helped divert attention from my aching limbs, particularly the final 6 miles over the extremely undulating Seven Sisters up to Beachy Head. My daughter Millie came to the fore, assisting me to climb a couple of particularly steep slopes at the end. My feet are fine amazingly un-blistered but I do feel like a hip replacement may be required.
THANK YOU SO MUCH for your donation. To date we have collectively raised nearly £4,500 - exceeding our original target by £500 - which is fantastic news for both our charities. If you would still like to make a donation, there is time to do so.
