St Helens Sutton pair go sub three-hours in London Marathon

This is a finishing time that many long distance runners dream about. Ryan Molyneux was the first home in 2 hours 47 minutes 51 seconds, followed by team mate Matt Blake in 2 hours 58 minutes 57 seconds.

Both times well under the three hour mark.

Meanwhile at the London Mini Marathon the day before Liam Johnson u17 and Bobby Birkett u13 both represented the North west.

Liam recorded a time of 7 minutes 43 seconds to finish second north west counter and Bobby posting a time of 9 minutes 16 seconds to finish 5th north west counter.

On the same day and much closer to home the clubs u13s and u15s boys and girls competed at Victoria Park Warrington in the Lower YDL League. It was a great start to the season with the club recording no fewer than 23 PBs on the day with Sutton finishing 3rd.
