I'm Running to Paris - oh lord!
Oh lordy, you heard that right! I'm running to Paris with 4 others from Team Imperial, and we're doing it all in just four days!C’est impossible! I hear you cry. Well, technically there’s a ferry to get us from Newhaven to Dieppe, but we’ll be setting off from Wimbledon, London and finishing at none other than the Eiffel Tower. Each of us will be running a half marathon every single day. Say whaaat?!
To spice things up, Imperial’s customers will be joining us too – which means we now have the added challenge of beating them to the finish line - all before you can say sacré bleu!
This is one heck of a challenge that’s going to push us (and our questionable knees) to the limit, but we’re doing it to raise as much money as possible for Parkinson’s UK. Parkinson’s is the fastest-growing neurological disease in the world and, for me, it’s personal – my mum has been battling this condition for over 10 years.
With your support and donations, we can provide vital funds to help this incredible charity and all the people it supports.
As you know, I usually run only when there’s food waiting at the end, so bring on the baguettes, éclairs and crêpes! If you can’t donate money, snacks will do nicely – especially Percy Pigs to keep us fuelled along the way!
Much love and bonne chance to us :)
Good Luck to you and all the team xxx
