Story

Well its another year and another Marathon and this year I am running to support the finest Corps in the British Army.  The Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers.

After spending the majority of the year cooped up in a dusty store room I have found yet another cracking costume to run the London Marathon.

This will be no mean feat as the suit weighs in at 2 stone and when I start running I get into a hefty sweat on. 

Training is going well although when I do manage to get out people have a good stare, but this did not stop me completing the Reading Half Marathon with support from 4 Close Support Battalion REME. 

I am running for the Army Benevolent fund to help raise money for the service men and women past and present. 

So please help out and dig deep.
