The 30-strong team completed the seven kilometres running route and four miles wheelchair route.

They set a combined target of £1500, but the Oldbrook based charity - which hosts its awareness day on May 20 - has seen sponsorship so far raise a magnificent £2495.

“Not only did they complete the course in just over two hours in such hot weather, but they’ve also exceeded their fundraising target too!
“This money will help the Spinal Injuries Association provide vital services to spinal cord injured people and their families as they rebuild their lives.”
