Coombs’ Managing Buyer was among the record 39,487 finishers of the 2017 Virgin Money London Marathon.
Completing the 26-mile journey from Greenwich to Westminster in 3:42:50, Ian took part on behalf three good causes including:
- Children with Cancer UK: the leading national children’s charity dedicated to the fight against childhood cancer. For more information visit: http://www.childrenwithcancer.org.uk/
- Alzheimer’s Society: who make sure that there’s the best possible care for people with dementia today, and research into new treatments or a cure for tomorrow. For more information click here.
- Prostate Cancer UK: who have a simple ambition – to stop men dying from prostate cancer. For more information click here.
With almost 40,000 people taking part in the 2017 event, organisers are confident the race will again break the Guinness World Record it has set for the last 10 years.
Ian is now setting his sights on next year when he hopes to take part in both the London and the Greater Manchester Marathons. All here at Coombs would like to congratulate you on your fantastic achievement and wish you good luck for next year.
