THANK YOU to Sean Sheppard for completing the London Marathon 2012 and raising funds for the SVP Mablethorpe Children’s Camp. An incredible achievement!!!

 

 

 

In Sean's words: "Despite worries about the condition of my knee after the last big training run two weeks ago, on Sunday 22nd April 2012 I completed my first (and last) marathon in 5 hours and 18 minutes. The combination of support from family, friends and colleagues, who have helped me fundraise well on the way to my £1,000 target, and the fabulous atmosphere on the day, got me round, despite having to hobble pretty much the final third of the run. Thanks to all who supported me. It's great to know that the kids on the summer camps at Mablethorpe this year will benefit from the money YOU have donated. Thanks again - Sean."
