Tour De Core

Wednesday 14th Jan
Five mums. Fifteen children left at home. One huge challenge.
We’re running from London to Paris.

None of us are “runners”. In fact, most of us have never done anything like this before and, to be completely honest, we’re more than a little terrified. But sometimes the most meaningful things happen when you step well outside your comfort zone.

We’ve come together through Pilates at Movement & Co in Wickhamford, through friendship, and through a shared passion for raising money for an incredible charity that means so much to us.

As a group, we’re a real mix: a teacher, a doctor specialising in menopause, an accountant, a dairy farmer and physiotherapist finally an exercise physiologist who works closely with people living with Parkinson’s. Different lives, different skills—but one collective goal.

This challenge is about proving to ourselves (and to our children) that ordinary women can do extraordinary things when they support one another. We hope to do everyone proud and make it all the way to Paris—one step, one mile, one deep breath at a time.

If you’re able to support us, we’d be so grateful. Every donation helps and makes this daunting journey worthwhile for an amazing cause. Thank you so much for being part of our story 💛
