Luctonians in the Community

A number of Luctonians 3rd and 4th XV team undertook their second challenge for St Michaels Hospice in September 2021. This time the boys walked 100km along the Jurassic Coast in under 24 hours. They started the walk at Lyme Regis in the west of Dorset and finished just short of Bournemouth on the other side of the county. 13 members of the team took part in the walk, while two more drove in support vehicles with food, water and other supplies.

The first of the teams made it across the line in 23hrs 35mins, with the others following a short while later. The quote of the day was, “I’d happily do two three peaks challenges back-to-back, than one of these again.” The going was gruelling with no sleep since Friday night and only 5×10 minute breaks over the entire 100km. It was an incredible achievement.

Walk Time – 23hrs 35 Mins

Money Raised – £7092.00
