Drewton Woods Cross Country

London Marathon Results
A HUGE well done to all the runners who took part in the London Marathon. It wasn't the easiest run with very hot temperatures, and there were a few injuries along the way. But everyone should be really proud of themselves.
And a special well done to Daz...who elected to join the budgie smuggling club and run with nothing but the support of his lovely wife Helen.

From beginners to runners who've been doing marathons for years, you can find out who's doing what and who's going the extra mile by raising funds for some very worthy charities.
