BTP Architects - Great Wall of China Marathon

BTP conquers gruelling Great Wall of China Marathon for Francis House

WHAT started as a joke became gruelling reality when our running team, The BTP Ninjas, took on one of the world’s toughest marathons for charity.

Our very own Vicky Saunders, Leanne Taylor, Manuel Atkinson and Emma Cross, took part in the Great Wall Marathon in China in aid of Francis House Children’s Hospice.

“The notion of doing the Great Wall of China Marathon was initially suggested in the office as a joke as it is one of hardest marathons in the world,” said Managing Director Victoria Saunders.

“It was an incredible experience. The event had an amazing atmosphere. All of the villagers and their children came out to cheer us on, which really kept us going.

“We’re all really proud to have successfully completed this challenge and to have raised funds for a cause close to our hearts.”
