London Marathon success for Reydon lady

Amanda Humphry from Reydon successfully completed the London Marathon on Sunday, 27th April. This was Amanda’s fourth London Marathon, having previously run in 2007, 2010 and 2012.

It was a warm day for running, with a record number of runners and enormous supportive crowds the entire length of the 26.2 miles.

Amanda said, ‘I had an absolutely brilliant day, and loved every minute. The crowds were absolutely brilliant, cheering on all the runners. I was lucky enough to see my husband Nick plus other friends and family members while I was on the course, which gave me a huge lift! I was also thrilled to beat my fundraising targets for all three of the charities I was supporting, and am hugely grateful to everyone who has supported and encouraged me. Running through the winter months is hard, and I did over 400 miles of training for this event, my longest being 22 miles, but it really was worth all the effort, and I think I smiled the whole way round!’

Amanda has also now become a Guinness World Record holder, as this year’s London Marathon had the most ever finishers of any marathon, 56,640 in total, thus breaking the world record. Having run via a hard-to-come-by ballot place, Amanda chose to run for Breast Cancer Now, Prostate Cancer UK and The Brain Tumour Charity in memory of dear friends Sian and Phil and her cousin Richard, and to date has raised over ÂĢ1,000 for each charity.
