“It really was an amazing event to take part in and we were so fortunate to have such warm, dry weather on our side. After 100km, two days, 8 pairs of socks, 2 pairs of trainers, 11 blisters, 1,000 stiles (or so it seemed!), and a multitude of rolling hills in the beautiful countryside, it was amazing to finally reach Brighton racecourse in the glorious sunshine to be greeted with cheers from the spectators, my family and a chilled glass of fizz.”
Sarah, who took on London 2 Brighton
