PAST EVENTS
London Marathon - 22-04-2018
Four members of our team bravely signed up to run the London Marathon on Sunday 22nd April! If the task of running 26 miles was not daunting enough they had to deal with the added fact that this was the hottest London Marathon on record at 23.2°. But this didn't stop them, they were absolutely brilliant. We are very proud of them. All the training and hard runs in all kinds of weather prior helped them along the way and they took inspiration from the support they received from every donation made towards them smashing through their target of £4K. Congratulations to all four brave runners and every runner that took part in this years London Marathon. And a huge thank you to everyone that sponsored our fab four.
