We have done it!!
It’s been a hilly, windy and very wet 59 mile day today, but none of that mattered as we cruised into John O’Groats.
We made an 8 mile detour to go to Dunnets head, which is the most Northerly point in the UK mainland!
From there we were counting down the miles until the big finish! It was emotional as we were heading to the sign post with joy and elation!
We were met by our starting crew to provide us with a bottle of bubbly to celebrate!
This had been one of the most rewarding, challenging and memorable journeys. We are over the moon we have been able to do it together! This is something that we will never ever forget. We would not change one single thing about the journey!

Heather was laughing at size of David’s muscles from Brussels!
It was a touching and fitting end when sitting in the cafe at John O’Groats wearing our prostate cancer tops when someone came over to us and ask us what we have done, then announcing at the end he had had prostate cancer and he got quite emotional talking about it. There were other lovely people who also heard what we have done and donated at the end in the cafe.
Prostate Cancer is something that affects one in eight men and that does not include endless family and friends! There are so many people out there fighting this awful cancer and any bit of money would be greatly appreciated!
