Palace for Life Foundation were well represented in the London Marathon, with keen observers noticing flashes of red and blue between panting rhino costumes last Sunday (October 3rd).

Eight runners managed the gruelling 26.2 miles to raise money for the Foundation, including their former coach Jack Kavanagh and the club's Commercial Account Manager Liam Connery.

There were even two supporters, Simon Hudson (who lives in Switzerland) and Noeline Nabaiibi, who ran the marathon virtually!
