Slow Way Down - Day 10
7th June 2008
Truro to Land’s End
A relaxed start to a 2½ hour drive in hot sunny weather via Helston and Penzance to Land’s End. We crossed the finish line just after 12pm, and were welcomed by a mega crowd of friends and family. Spent the rest of the day on the beach!
A huge thanks to everyone who has helped and donated to this challenge. They have helped to make this an incredibly fun and successful event that we have really enjoyed.
We are well on the way to reaching our target of £30,000 for Cancer Research UK, but if you haven’t donated yet, you can still do so by going to www.justgiving.com/slowwaydown or sending a cheque (payable to Slow Way Down) to James at Laura House, Gestingthorpe, Halstead, Essex, CO9 3AX.
