London Marathon 2023 (in a Mosquito Costume)

Location Chelmsford, England 
Date:
23 Apr 2023

I'm David and I've been a runner all of my life.

Although I have run 41 races (including 12 marathons and 2 ultramarathons), this challenge was genuinely "out of my running comfort zone", never having run in a costume before. I've always wanted to run the London Marathon and I wanted to make it extra special by attempting to break an individual Guinness World Record.

And I managed it! I set a new (male) world record running a marathon dressed as an insect (in 3 hours, 49 minutes and 38 seconds).
