Benji said he was privileged to run through the hills and valleys of the ancient city with Sophie in his heart and prayers.
He admitted that it had been “a tough run”, but the effort had been well worth it
Sophia’s mother expressed her gratitude to Benji, saying that this was one of the most touching acts that she had experienced.
It is due to people like Benji that makes the DL Link such a positive bridge between serious illness and hope.
