Sound Therapy

Here’s Gary, back in the office the day after the Hastings centenary marathon, holding his medal to prove that he really did run the 26+ miles on a shiveringly-cold day in December.

He was disappointed with his time - over 5 hours - but delighted to have finished when so many fell (literally) by the roadside. He chose to start at the back of the field and passed many casualties, some being taken away by ambulance!

The best part for Gary was the response of the people on the route. The runners appreciated that in the middle of the countryside residents had turned out to hand out drinks or simply applaud the effort being made. From the five mile mark, into Battle, they also had an escort of motorbikes ridden by Santas shaking bells.

As a result of Gary’s efforts there’ll be an extra bursary fund next year for people who might want to attend the Music Gym but can’t on the grounds of cost. So, a huge thank you to Gary and to all those who sponsored him.
