London Marathon 2009! Virgil the Thunderbird has done it!!!!! A New World Record of 3hrs 11minutes and 50 seconds!!! What an amazing response by everyone......thank you all so much for donating to Scope! Virgil Tracy: Thunderbird Two to Thunderbird One, do you read me? He wants to beat the World Record for "Fastest Marathon Dressed as a Film Character"! It's a head to head challenge between Virgil and Maximus (Gladiator). Maximus holds the record of 3hrs 22 mins - Virgil is going to try and cut loose from those (somewhat restrictive) strings and claim a World Record for the Thunderbird Scope crew! You can help! - I need sponsorship! I'm doing this to raise money for Scope - Scope's aim is to achieve equality for disabled people - they are a great charity that need supporting - hence why I'm dressing up as a puppet on a string!!!! This is an actual World Record attempt - likely to be televised - you can track my run on the day by Texting "Run " to 83040 - follow the online instructions - my bib number is 28299! Look out for further updates - Virgil has run a half marathon in 1hr 38mins - so it's going to be close!!! It would be absolutely F.A.B if you could spare 5 minutes of your time and sponsor me!

Virgil Tracy: Thunderbird Two to Thunderbird One, do you read me?
