Congratulations to Rachel Bodsworth who won the club ballot to run the London Marathon. The weather conditions were perfect and Rachel finished with an amazing time of 4:05:02!
Meanwhile in Suffolk, Jo Sargent, Sam and Vicky Tapp and Nathalie Hooper were running the Virtual London Marathon.
Jo started her run at High Lodge in Thetford, but after 13 miles had a sore hamstring. Instead of giving up, she went back to Hadleigh and finished her run there. Sam and Vicky were also running around Hadleigh and beyond. Vicky had a nasty fall, but carried on to the end. Nathalie used the crossroads method and ran several routes out and back from Battisford.
They all finished in under 5 hours and for Sam, Vicky and Nathalie this was their first time running a marathon.
