Story

Lauren and Jonathan successfully completed the London Marathon on Sunday 22 April, the day of our 22 wedding anniversary.

Lauren, was  simply amazing having been injured for 7 weeks leading into the London Marathon and completed the Marathon in 4 hours 45 minutes .

Jonathan finished in 5 hours 5 minutes following chronic cramp in the whole of his lower body at mile 17/18 and was forced to finish  with a mixture of walking, very very slow jogging where possible and literally limping down the Mall at the end.

We are so grateful for the overwhelming support we have received for our chosen charity,  Chai Cancer Care.

So very many thanks  for supporting us and making this a very memorable 22nd wedding anniversary and rewarding Marathon experience, even if it was rather painful in part..

Lauren and Jonathan xx
