Well done to Laura Carver & Gary Tovey who were among the those lucky enough to be chosen as the first to run round the Olympic Park and track, last Sunday. What a wonderful experience for them both, and how proud were their families. Both finished the race in very respectable times. Laura in 39.25 and Gary in 50.42. Me? I would still be out there!! Laura’s next outing will be the London Marathon, not competing this time but to support her brother Chris.
