Today I ran the 3.71 miles the distance that Matt Campbell sadly didn’t finish in last weeks London marathon. I took great pride in doing this and for myself it was a challenge as I have never ran more than 5k . Please visit his JustGiving page and make a donation if you can #runformatt

Such a great tribute, well done dory950

I’m completing this tomorrow with my local running group 😊

Good luck I wrote it on my hand and when I got tired I looked at it so I could re-focus 😊

Love this idea...I’ve only run 5k once before so it will be tough to complete it. If I have to take a few walking breaks I will do 😊
