Athletic gardeners run marathon
The gardeners from The Downs Crematorium, Brighton, ran 26 miles in the New Forest Marathon in September raising £559 for Chestnut Tree House Children's Hospice.
The hospice is part of the Children's Hospices UK network, a national charity that gives support to children with terminal illnesses and are Dignity's corporate charity for 2010/11.
After declaring "Never again!" at the finish line, Chris, Andy and Paul were planning their next run by the time they had finished a few well-earned drinks.
