The London Marathon this Sunday

Tom in QE Olympic Park

Tom Webb of Ashburnham Grove is running again this year, after a year off from the London Marathon. He's been in other races though. At the Big Half marathon a few weeks ago he just beat his lifetime ambition to do a half marathon in under 80 mins - he came in in 79 mins 51 seconds!!!! Whew!

If you want to track his progress on Sunday, his running number is 24726.
His charity is the Parkinson's UK Charity
