JULIET Hindon of the Fit2Run group recently swapped her running trainers for hiking boots in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support.

The Cotswolds Mighty Hike took place on Saturday, July 19 and Juliet walked from Stow-on-the-Wold to Blenheim Palace through the stunning rolling Cotswolds countryside. The route took in riverside paths and cross-country trails and Julie completed the 26-mile route in seven hours and 54 minutes.

Despite the rain, Juliet had a great day and commented that the volunteers at the pit stops were super friendly. The selection of snacks was fantastic, the stewards along the way were full of smiles and encouraging words, and the finish was brilliantly set up.

Juliet has already raised a fantastic £500 for Macmillan, double her original target. Congratulations to her!

Here she is pictured after completing this marvellous feat.
