Kath Quirk - 22 Parish Walks without a finish in sight



A few months ago, when I ran a story about Chris Lyon being the most successful, unsuccessful walker in the history of the Manx Telecom Parish Walk, I was contacted by Kath Quirk (in photo with husband Charlie) to say that she had walked 22 without a finish.

I would still call that record a success - and its 17 times more than Charlie!

There is no finish in sight for Kath who keeps going year after year.
