Congratulations to Dr Tom Solomon, AKA The Running Mad Professor for winning our third VLM competition by getting an amazing 262 unique donations between 19th April and the Big Day itself!
Tom wins a £500 donation, which takes him tanatalisingly close to his ambitious £17,000 target for the Encephalitis Society. He only needs another £103 to beat it, so if you’re still riding high after the marathon and feeling generous for a Friday afternoon, why not help him out?
Tom success can be explained partly by the fact that he successfully broke the Guinness World Record for the fastest marathon dressed as a doctor (04:21:09) and partly because his training video is something of a YouTube sensation. If you didn’t see it as part of our VLM homepage takeover, here it is:
As it happens we caught up with Tom on Marathon day before we knew that he won the competition to ask how he’d got on. Here’s the video interview:
