We were delighted to welcome Frank Wainwright to the Cathedral recently as he made his (almost) final stop on a epic journey and pilgrimage. In support of the Brathay Trust, which encourage the well-being of young people and the part that the great outdoors can play in that, Frank has been running a ‘Big Tour of England’ – an ultra-marathon (32 miles) every day – taking in 42 cathedral cities in England.
Frank began his journey in Newcastle on 1 July and Carlisle was his final stop… although we did send him on the last leg of the journey running back to Newcastle. Frank is pictured here with The Very Revd Jonathan Brewster, Dean of Carlisle. You can find out more about his remarkable achievement on his website.
