Friends run marathon and raise £4,000 for Sara Lee Trust

TWO BEXHILL friends raised just over £4,000 for the Sara Lee Trust by running the Virgin London Marathon in April.

Maria Gonet from The Sara Lee Trust said she was "absolutely thrilled" to collect the cheque totalling 4,000.10 from Ashley McFaite and Amber Hoad, which they had raised in sponsorship donations after completing the marathon.

Neither Amber, nor Ashley, had run a full marathon before, and Amber said: "It was a good day; physically and mentally painful but enjoyable."
