CHAPLAIN’S CENTENARY CHALLENGE

Admm8h | 4 May 2023

On 30th April a team of staff, students and parents took on the challenge of running a relay race along the Three Castles Path from Winchester to Windsor via our very own castle in the middle of Odiham. Students from every year group ran anything from 5 to 20+ kilometres along this ancient path to raise funds for the incredible Lord Wandsworth Foundation, enabling children who have lost the support of one or both parents to access the most amazing education at Lord Wandsworth College.

If that wasn’t enough to encourage your generosity, one intrepid runner, Mr Pyper attempted to run all 100km of the path alongside the relay race.

The event was incredible! 100km reached in just under 12 hours. Everyone went above and beyond, running well beyond what they’d planned, keeping going even when everything hurt and smashing all our expectations – incredible work. Huge congratulations to Gerry (5th Form), who put us all to shame with an incredible 58k under his belt and to Phoebe who planned to run 5k and clocked up 30k by the time we finished.

Thanks again for all your support – the sponsorship page is still open should you wish to donate: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/thechaplainschallenge
