London Marathon - 17th April 2011

London Marathon 2011 was a glorious day for runners and spectators alike. Our well supported runners did not disappoint with some great results. Tim Heming was our first runner home, so narrowly missing the sub-3hr-mark with an excellent time of 3 hours and 13 seconds.

Mike Hobbs had a great run to break 4 hours with only 4 weeks training in 3:53:42. John Gibson finished for Bourton, dressed as Hamlet for the MSRC, in a respectable 4:16:30, despite having struggling with injury in recent weeks.
