Is walking 87 miles along Hadrians wall romantic? We dont know, but for our 13th wedding anniversary we are going to find out.
Meeting in an RAF dining hall 16 years ago because his friend had sat with mine, we didnt think much of it, ate our lunch politely and went our separate ways. Two weeks later, when he ran down the road in those horrendously uncomfortable military shoes just to talk to me, i thought maybe there was more to it. 3 years later we got married and 13 years after that we are attempting this walk.
Having a combined service total of 42 years, we have seen the highs and lows of colleagues and their families battling with cancer. To find a charity that is run by military people, for military people, serving or retired, is phenomenal.
Not going to lie, this walk is going to push us both but others have been through worse, so lets have a go and see where we get.
