ONLY THE BRAVE!


Over 8000 brave souls faced rain, wind, hail and freezing conditions this morning for the Charity Half Marathon Beacon Run.
In spite of everything the weather through at them, these brave runners turned out in force to raise money for various charities.
I salute all those who took part.
I was able to help in a very small capacity as a Marshall at the event, right along at the Black Rock end of the run.
I was so impressed at the numbers who took part, and at the excellent organisation of the event.
It is times like these, with the voluntary help of so many people, that you realise what it is that makes Britain great!
