🎾🏃♀️ Good luck to one of our extended club family taking on an incredible challenge! 🏃♀️🎾
Tomorrow at the iconic London Marathon, Rachel will be running the full 26.2 miles… dressed as a tennis player 🎾👟 — all in a bid to set a world record for the fastest female to complete the marathon in tennis kit!
Not only is this an amazing (and slightly bonkers!) challenge, it’s all for a brilliant cause close to her heart. 💙
From long training runs to mastering the logistics of running in full tennis gear, her journey has been nothing short of inspiring — and we’re incredibly proud to cheer her on from the sidelines.

Let’s get behind her and show some club spirit — every cheer (and every pound!) will help carry her to the finish line.
*Good luck Rachel — we’ll be thinking of you every step of the way!*
The London Marathon beckons for a third consecutive time, which proves I’m still in the midst of my very specific and very sweaty mid-life crisis! It’ll be my second time fundraising for The Institute
