July 26, 2019Kim Pidgeon

The marathon route sees participants taking part in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support 

Caritas team member Becky Wilson stormed the Thames Path Mighty Hike this July, raising thousands of pounds for charity in the process.

The scenic route, which is approximately 26 miles, follows the iconic Thames river from Windsor to Henley. Participants are estimated to take between 7.5 hours and 12.5 hours to complete the course.

Becky, who took on the challenge as part of a group of 11 family and friends, reached the finish line in position 30 out of over 2000 people taking part on the day. Her partner Mark came in next, in position 31.

The 11-strong team have so far raised a huge £5239.77 for Macmillan Cancer Support, with that total currently still rising as pledges are received for their achievement.

All money raised from the event goes straight to Macmillan, with each entrant raising a minimum of 250 pounds as a condition of entering the event.

Macmillan provides emotional, physical and financial support for people living with cancer. For more information on their fundraising events click here.
