"…the wonderful support and incredible crowd, I have never cried so much. Was lovely to have the support from the Prostate Cancer team, especially at mile 17, when I was struggling a bit. To hear my name over the tannoy and being asked to do a bow - which I did - got me going again. The old legs will take a while to recover, but the memories will last forever."
Clive, London Marathon Runner 2022
