Mighty Hike...


Saturday 5th October, 2024





In January, the Elsworth and Hunton families decided they wanted a challenge in 2024. The group of three generations registered for the Mighty Hike Half Marathon in Northumberland as they would often visit that part of the country and they wanted to support the Macmillan Cancer Fundraiser. For some, the half marathon was going to be a big challenge! When the day arrived, the large group set off from Alnwick with the beautiful castle as their backdrop.

They started with a good pace and found themselves doing really well. The pit stop at mile five in Alnmouth was a much-needed sight as Aleesha was struggling with sickness (suspected food poisoning).

The Elsworths and Huntons were greeted with drinks and snacks to help restore their energy levels.

Setting off again was tough, but they soon got going again and found themselves heading through the golf course at Alnmouth down to the beach.
