Six runners from the local Springwell Running Club have entered the Guinness Book of Records.
They were part of a group of 37,966 others across the world, in a unique category of running a marathon inside 24 hours, after running the London Marathon virtually.
Running is a very sociable sport and the opportunity to take part in a world major is always a highlight of anyone’s running career, so the cancellation of the 2020 Virgin London Marathon, while understandable, was a great disappointment to so many athletes.
