The I’ve done it 3 times medal<\/p><\/div>\n

\"CarolS\"<\/a>Our own Carol Simmons has returned from her challenging 4 day walk at the International Nijmegen Marches. Carol completed a gruelling 200km (128 mile) course over 4 days. Elise and Beth her daughters did the 160km (100 mile)route. Whilst the actual walk itself is a major achievement, it is well worth mentioning the massive commitment and discipline\u00a0that\u00a0all 3 put into training for the event.\u00a0The highly structured programme of\u00a0practice walks start back at the beginning of the year\u00a0in the\u00a0snow and rain and increasingly longer walks in shorter times to build up\u00a0strength and fitness.<\/p>\n

This is the 3 Nijmegen that Carol has completed so she was awarded a special medal. This year she dedicated the walk to the memory of David Cummings a former choir member and good friend to Christ Church. She walked in aid of Marie Curie Cancer Care and has so far raised over \u00a31,065 from the generous sponsorship of our community.<\/p>\n

You can still contribute on line via her Just Giving Page<\/a> or by catching her at church on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Well done Carol.<\/p>\n
