Well done everyone, thank you for entering the Tour des Marches Challenge Walk (Wistanstow) we hope that you enjoyed it, once again we know that some of you exceeded your personal goals.

For the 6th year running we achieved a full entry, we also managed to arrange the weather again!

As always spirits seemed to be high with lots of stories of people pulling together to help each other along, which is what it’s all about.

If any of you have any tales to tell please get in touch. We gathered a few comments at the end which we will place onto the website.

During the next week or so the South Shropshire Journal and the Ludlow Advertiser will carry some pictures and a small report. Pictures may also appear at some point on on our Facebook Page.

The organisers would like to thank, Britpart Ltd, Craven Arms;Outdoor Depot, Church Stretton;Woods Brewery, Wistanstow; Wenlock Water, Wolverton; Hough & Son (Butchers),Church Stretton; Post Office Craven Arms;the ladies of the Village Hall Committee who baked such nice cakes, our super volunteers, the landowners on route and the Firefighters at Clun and Bishop’s Castle for their support and assistance. If you visit any of these places please thank them.

The first finisherSimon White from Church Stretton who finished in 4hrs 04mins just missing the record by 3 mins! Simon was followed by Ed Morris from Shrewsbury, 4hrs 37mins and Bradley Gurney Bucknellin 4hrs 41mins.

First lady was Libby Collinson from Much Wenlock in 4hrs 55mins, closely followed by Alison Hartshorne,Church Stretton, in 4hrs 56mins with Kirsty Briggs, Madeley, in 5hrs 11 mins well done all.

22men managed to complete within 6hrs 30mins, and 15 ladies made it within 7hrs 30mins.

If you are a LDWA Member please say nice things on the forum! It all helps!

We are desperately trying to source another mini bus having lost the use of our original vehicle. If anyone can help please get in touch!

Finally a plea for help, we desperately need more helpers, especially at the start, if you think you may like to put something back or know of someone who could assist please let us know.

Hopefully we (you) have raised some money forthe Village Hall and the Firefighter’s Charity, and hopefully we can do it all again next year! See you then.
