Alex Completes 60 Mile Trek

14 July 2017

We would like to say a huge well done to Alex Elsaesser who recently walked through the night to complete a 60 mile trek along the Ceredigion Coastal path.

Alex said: “In the end it took us 29 hours walking to finish the 60 miles. Walking on the cliffs through the night was mental.  The group that organised the Walk pulled out a month before so we had to do it on our own. Fortunately we had beautiful weather and light winds. The scenery was beautiful but I would never suggest anyone do this all in one go. I never want to see another gate!”

Alex has completed many challenges for Cerebra previously including taking part in the London 10K for several years. He wanted to finish his run of fundraising with a bang and we think he has succeeded!

The 71 year old was joined on the walk by Jess Elsaesser and Ezra Mathias.

The group have so far raised an incredible £2,450 for Cerebra – far surpassing their initial £750 target. You can still support them through their Just Giving page.
