There are three routes, ranging from 29 miles, 37 miles and 55 miles. The ride will commence at 9.30 am on Sunday 4 th September, starting at The Green in Richmond, TW9 1PL and finishes at Alexandra Gardens in Windsor, SL4 1QZ.

It is not too late to get involved and for those of you who wish to participate, please contact or email Julia Bell or Eman Hassan on 020 8332 8639.

Trevor Sterling, Moore Blatch, comments: “Brain injury is an area very close to our heart, so we are delighted to be raising funds for the South West London branch of Headway which provides support for people all over South and South West London, including areas such as Wimbledon, Richmond, Balham and Croydon.”

Becky – off the Wall!

Becky Newman - Great Wall of China Marathon 2013It was the hardest race I’ve ever run. An unrelenting and unforgiving course that seems to slope upwards all the way. The first six miles are up a steep mountain road then it’s onto the wall. After 5000 knee-high steps you join the uphill mountain roads again for a giant sixteen mile loop.

Lots of the local Chinese line the route which is lovely, especially the children who are keen to high-five as you run
by. At mile 22 runners are sadistically directed back onto the wall to climb the 5000 steps all over again. We were like 2500 zombies crossing the Chinese countryside.

I can’t believe I did it in six hours, there were long stretches where I walked and was full of self-doubt. There was
a lot of congestion on narrow strips of the wall which slowed runners down. It felt like I was out there for 10 hours! I’m glad I did it but it was BRUTAL! Nice to be home again.
