Hi all, This weekend Jeff Aston is doing his 40th consecutive London Marathon, albeit virtually on this occasion for obvious reasons. Jeff is only one of 11 remaining 'ever-presents'who have completed all 39 London marathons to date and is running this year to raise money for City Hospice, a cause close to his heart and I'm sure others connected to the club. He is aiming to raise £2020 if he can and it would be great if as many of us as possible could support him in this. Any amount, big or small, would be very much appreciated I'm sure. See https://www.justgiving.c...undraising/jeffaston2020 for more details and to donate if you're able to. Good luck for Sunday Jeff! Cheers, Chad

LIKE  very much Chad! There's also a really nice breakdown of the charitable cause and Jeff's run on the City Hospice website There is a link on that site to Jeff's route but I've attached it below as it's not completely obvious (must be logged in to view). Included is the suggested spot for supporters There's apparently some very fast runners on TV in the morning but I might cycle up to lend some physically distanced support in the afternoon!
