Story

Welcome to our sponsorship page for the London Marathon. Long long ago in a pub far far away,  3 inebriated and clearly delusional would be marathoners hatched a not so cunning plan to run the 2007 London Marathon. Clearly these poor deluded souls actually had no intention of actually going through with the plan, but it did sound rather admirable to the inebriated trio.

Unfortunately, these things tend to gather momentum, apparently by osmosis in some cases, and before we knew it the acceptance letter came back making it impossible to make a strategic withdrawal with any dignity.

So, with a £5K target to hit, a combined 3000 miles to be run in training, and collectively, about 4 stone in weight to lose, we begin the difficult and arduous task of reducing our alcohol intake let alone the actual training.

We would really appreciate your assistance in reaching our sponsorship target and for that minimal financial sacrifice you get the enjoyment of seeing us in a state of perpetual agony. So many thanks in anticipation for your help and see you at the marathon roadside shouting either encouragement or abuse, either of which will help.

David, Phil, David and Kate
