Limber up for a legal walk along the Thames

Two-day event is only weeks away

There are less than six weeks to go until the 2013 Walk the Thames walk, run by the London Legal Support Trust in aid of legal charities. 

It is a two-day event on 5 and 6 October. Walkers (and runners) cover 20 miles each day, and can take part on either or both days. Day 1 starts at Clifford Chance’s offices in Canary Wharf at 8am and ends at a nice pub in Putney, while Day 2 starts at Russell Cooke’s office in Putney at 9am and ends at a nice pub in Hampton Court. 

Mr Justice Haddon-Cave, who intends to run the route, will lead both days. 

To register, one person should agree to be the organisation’s team organiser and recruit walkers and runners. There is no minimum number for a team and no entry fee. Individual walkers are invited to join the LLST team. Team registration details can be found here and individual registration information can be found here.

Other LLST fundraising events lined up for this year include skydiving over Cambridge on 20 September, a Halloween Ball on 31 October, and a 10km obstacle course at Battersea Power Station on 16 November.
