Church pair to run in London Marathon

0

TWO members of Padgate Methodist Church are running in this year’s London Marathon.
Trevor Rhodes is a lay preacher and also the welfare officer at Bruche Athletic Junior Football Club and Gareth Roberts is also a member of Warrington Male Voice Choir.
The pair are already in training in and around the Warrington area.
Trevor started running three years ago when, to use his own words, he found he needed a larger size of jeans.
He is now back to his old size thanks to the training.
Gareth has been running for many years.
Both are running for charities – Amnesty International and Action for Children respectively.
They are hoping local people and organisations will sponsor them and anyone who wants to help can do so by logging on to www.justgiving.com and then typing in their names and the charity.
The race is on Sunday April 26 and, as usual, will be televised.
