BCLP Sponsored Walk Virtual Marathon Relay
Disappointed that the London Marathon was cancelled on 26 April, six ladies from the running club Fairlands Valley Spartans wanted to do something to mark the occasion and raise some much needed funds for charity as charities have been hit so hard during the current crisis. Michelle came up with the idea of running a Virtual Marathon Relay. Between the six of us, we aimed to complete the marathon distance, within in 3 hours, which meant running 4.37miles each, one after the other - live streaming as much of it as we could so our supporters could watch from their homes and cheer us on! Our baton (a wooden spoon) started in Hampshire at 10am with Ella, before making it's way up to Hertfordshire for the next four legs of the relay run by Michelle, Sam, Gail and Suzy, and finally over to Virginia, US for the final leg run by Ashley.
We completed our challenge in 2:54:43, smashing our 3 hour target and raising over £1,600 to be split between Bridge the Gap and Age UK. We also had a lot of fun doing it and it was great to be able to run with our team mates, albeit virtually.
Team members:
Ella-May Hards, Michelle Reeves, Samantha Pretty-Connors, Gail Mackie, Suzy Hawkins, Ashley King.
