Fantastic Four tackle all 26.2 miles of the 2017 London Marathon

From sitting behind desks every day, to picking up their running shoes, pounding the streets of London and tackling one of the hardest yet most rewarding 26.2 miles of their life, Cristian Basile, Jonathan Barrett, Lewis Borg and Alec Robert (pictured to the left) all completed the considerable distance in under 6 hours. They can now say that they have completed one of the greatest sporting challenges of their lives, something they will carry with them for a very long time.
Make A Wish Foundation, the charity of which all four of the men were running for, is an organisation that arranges experiences described as ‘wishes’ to children that suffer from life-threatening illnesses. So far combined the men have raised an incredible £13,419.62 all of which can go towards granting magical wishes that will help to enrich the lives of children and young people fighting the battle with life threatening illnesses. However, they could not have done it without the support of their work colleagues, friends and relatives who have all pushed them further and further allowing for that amazing amount of money to be raised.
Jonathan recently stated on his Just Giving page “A child’s life should not be about illness, hospitals and diagnosis – it should be about wonder, joy and hope”. By raising the money that the incredible four have done, it’ll allow for many of the children that are suffering to take part in these life changing experiences. Without the generosity of the sponsors, that so kindly donated money to any of the men, these wishes would not and could not have been possible and it is all thanks to the people who have dug deep for this fulfilling cause.
