marathon effort
from Spoonews Summer 2023
by Wooden Spoon
Congratulations to our 15 amazing Wooden Spoon runners who took part in the TCS London Marathon 2023. Despite the rain, spirits were high as they joined more than 40,000 people to run through the streets of the capital on their 26.2-mile journey to the finish line. We can’t thank them enough, along with every single person who donated and supported them. A few of our runners have shared their photos below.
Runner Jo Bolton said: “I wanted to run for Wooden Spoon as my son Thomas played rugby for Billericay Bees RFC. He was there for ten years and I am very much part of the rugby family, and still very involved with the club.
“It means so much to be able to help those that are facing disadvantage, illness or disability. If I can help make even one child’s life better, then that’s amazing and worth all of the effort.”
We have spaces in the 2024 marathon. We would love you to run on behalf of Wooden Spoon. Apply for your place here:
