Around 19 runners from Huntingdonshire Athletics Club (HAC) took part in the 2023 London Marathon on Sunday, April 23, and achieved some outstanding times.
Several runners set personal bests (PB) for themselves, with HAC member David Hudson placing 127th overall after finishing with a breathtaking time of 02:29:55.
The cameras also managed to pick up a great show of sportsmanship from HAC's Simon Bowman, who not only set a PB and ran sub 2:45, but also managed to help a fellow athlete across the line before the finish.
