(Updated) Good start to Marathon Week, well done Sachiko, Rachel and Pete!

Congratulations to our first three marathoners of the season, Sachiko Dixon, Rachel Hind and Pete Hansen, for their runs in the Brighton Marathon yesterday. Sachiko and Rachel were both running their first ever marathons, and both were running for charity, Sachiko for Thames Hospicecare and Rachel for Cancer Research - the links will take you to their donations pages.

Pete and Sachiko both ran negative splits (which most of us only dream of!), Sachiko running the second half (1.53) three minutes faster than the first (1.56) for a time of 3.49.25, while Pete beat 3.30 by 12 seconds, running a 1.45 and a 1.44 for a time of 3.29.48, which was a new PB and 9 minutes quicker than Edinburgh last spring.  Rachel completed her race in 4.47.08.

Well done to all of you, we are very proud of you.

We look forward to seeing your photos and hearing your stories of the day!
