Faced with soaring temperatures, Peter Gray, Malcolm McGregor, Steve Love and Amber Galbraith were able to keep their cool and complete the gruelling 26.2 miles – starting at Greenwich, and finishing on Pall Mall. Peter completed it in 4 hours 15 minutes – only one minute 30 seconds slower than his time last year. Malcolm followed shortly after, in 4 hours 35 minutes. Amber and Steve brought up the rear in 5 hours 14 minutes and 5 hours 28 minutes respectively. <span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 9pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;">The team were running on behalf of NCYPE, which is the UK's major provider of specialist services for children and young people with epilepsy and other neurological conditions. Donations are still very gratefully received.  Peter Gray ran the London Marathon with his eldest daughter, Ishbel. Ishbel was diagnosed with epilepsy at 18 but, very fortunately, now has the condition successfully controlled by medication. Their aim was to raise money for youngsters suffering from epilepsy, and so they ran on behalf of the National Centre for Young People with Epilepsy "NCYPE". They raised an incredible £12500.00. However, not satisfied with this achievement, Peter has decided to do it all again! And after plying Compass colleagues with plenty of wine at a pre-Christmas drinks do, three of us finally agreed to join him on 17th April: Malcolm McGregor, Steve Love and Amber Galbraith.
