Five Halstead Road Runners completed the Virgin London Marathon. Gavin Allen recorded a PB (personal best) with a cracking time of 2:49:32 . Apparently Gavin was “over the moon with his time!” Elsewhere Marathon specialist Andy Wilmot clocked a very respectable time of 4:11:19 placing him 50th in his age group 65 to 69 years young.

Full HRR results:

Gavin Allen 2:49:32 PB (running for Braintree)
Sam Wolton 4:38:20
Mick Purkiss 5:34:40
Hazel Buist 5:16:42
Andy Wilmot 4:11:19 (50th in age category 65 to 69)
