Running the London Marathon



Well I did it! I ran it in 4 hrs, 16 mins. The sheer number of runners and spectators was overwhelming. It was the warmest London Marathon on record and the heat took its toll on all of us. I felt strong throughout though I could feel that my pace slackened off slightly after 18 miles. The NSPCC support team was fantastic - they looked out for us at the Expo, were there at the start, cheered us along the route and put on a reception party afterwards. Thank you for supporting me I was glad to do my little bit to support them.

Recommended Agency Guide - we're in!

There's no better recommendation than client endorsement. Which is why we are very pleased to be included, for the third year running, in The Drum's Recommended Agency Guide. Our clients were asked to rate our performance according to reativity, strategic thinking and account handling. As a result we are delighted to be recognised once again as one of the top agencies outside London. We had a nice note from Emma at The Drum to confirm it this afternoon:
