Virgin London Marathon 2011
17/04/2011Sunday 17th April 2011
The Virgin London Marathon is the highlight of the running year. From the cheering crowds and thrilling atmosphere, to the world famous landmarks lining the 26.2 mile route from Greenwich to The Mall, it’s no surprise that this is one of the most famous races in the world for both professional and charity runners alike.
In 2010, 144 runners completed the Virgin London Marathon for JDRF and raised over £350,000. In 2011 we hope to raise more than ever before…
