Mike Conyers of Crushes Manor and Hilary Needham of the charity S.N.A.P joined me in the studio to talk about Mike’s London Marathon run last weekend and the money raised for charity.
Mike running the London Marathon is all the more amazing as Mike is blind. Mike was joined by sighted runner Steve Rich and attached via wrist strap to run the 2.6.2 miles.
Mike took 5 hours 11 mins and 2 seconds to run the raise and raised an amazing 6, 173k (so far).
Mike also has a beer named after him, you can buy MIKES MARATHON from the Brentwood Brewing Company https://www.brentwoodbrewing.co.uk/ Help support SNAP charity with
