Mark gets a PB
On St Georges day thousands of runners braved the rain and thousands of pounds was raised for charities. Great news Mark managed to trim a massive 13 minutes of his time and ran a respectful time of 3hrs 33 minutes. After months of training it all paid off.

The marathon had its usual characters this year including the Rhinos, Elvis, Batman,Bob the Builder and many others even Jade Goody had a go!

  

The men's race was won by Felix Limo and the ladies race was won by Dina Caster

Celebrities shared the roads with able bodied and wheelchair athletes to get round the 26mile course. There was a wedding, an 18 legged snake and of course Gordon Ramsey who's time Mark beat.

Mark did not however beat his brother Paul who did the course 10 minutes quicker than Mark in 3hrs 23mins. He is younger than Mark and this was his best time for 6 years so they have both done well.

Mark told me at 22 miles he found it very hard and wanted to go home but determination and dedication got him through he said it was tuff.

The money so far is £2061-50

In the junior marathon race we had Mark's daughter young Gemma who even got to speak to Cherie Blair also running was young Amy, Paul G's daughter so the 201st was well represented well done to all of you and thank you Mark for raising this money we are very grateful
