The Port Isaac Lifeboat Marathon Team have entered the 2019 Virgin London Marathon with the intention of raising £8,800 towards the funding of a new D Class lifeboat for Port Isaac to replace the existing aging boat, & its running costs  

The team consists of 6 runners, all of whom have connections with Port Isaac lifeboat:

Greg Hingley - Greg was a Crew Member for 8 years in the late 80’s & early 90’s before he moved away from the village. Greg now works as a Solicitor in Bristol & has run 3 London Marathons over the years raising money for the RNLI. 

Clair Johnson - Clair has been a lifeboat wife for 10 years, Clair’s husband Ian is one of the lifeboats Helmsmen. Clair works as a Pharmaceutical Representative & ran the 2018 Virgin London Marathon raising money for CLIC. 

Carol Hambly - Carol is a former RNLI Committee Secretary has been a lifeboat wife (& Mum!) for many years. Carol works as a Medical Secretary & ran the 2018 Virgin London Marathon raising money for the MS Society. 

Richard Hambly - Richard has volunteered thus far for 30 years, as a Crew Member, Helmsman, & currently a Launching Authority. Richard’s trade is that of a Paramedic & although he has never ran a marathon before, he did run the 2017 Great Bristol Half raising money for a Publicly Accessable Defribrilator for the area. 

Ian Johnson  - Ian has been on the crew for 10 years & last year became one of the stations helmsman. This will be Ian’s first marathon  

Andy Cameron - Andy is also one of the stations helmsman with 15 years experience on the crew. Andy runs the local Wavehunters business, & has run 2 marathons before  

The team held a Race Night in Port Isaac village hall on February 23rd we had  a great night & raised £1307!! 🍺🐴🍹

We have also received a large donation of £2500 from NATHAN OUTLAWS FISH KITCHEN, for which we are very grateful!! 👍

We are now running a sweep stake to win a meal for 4 at NATHAN OUTLAWS FISH KITCHEN ..... you need to guess the combined  time it will take all 6 of us to run the marathon!! It’s £2.50 a guess with the nearest guess taking the prize!! (No guesses after the race start will be considered).

So thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
