Story

Well, Sunday on the Great North Run proved to be one of the best days of our lives. So if you were there running or on the kerbside thank you thank you thank you. Kathy had a slipped disc so was in agony for most of the walk. We did it in about four hours so by the time we reached the tea tent everyone else had left. All that mattered was that we did it. There's talk of changing Walking for Whiteley to Running for Richard next year!!!!! It'll be slow though - a target of finishing by a week on Tuesday would do for us. Ah well, happy happy memories, Whiters was there with us in spirit and smiling. And YOU - THANK YOU so much for your sponsorship. The Mayor of Wetwang would have loved this and loved you for keeping his memory so alive. Thank you once again for everything. Lots of love from all of us. x
