Founding Patron’s Hotel Marathon
A massive well done to Tommy Club Founding Patron, Former Gurkha officer, combat helicopter pilot and Specialist Military Unit officer, Ash Alexander-Cooper OBE. He took on a full marathon on Monday, inside his quarantine hotel room in Sydney, Australia, to raise funds for RBLI!
Ash was inspired to take on the challenge after a recent survey by RBLI revealed the damaging effects the pandemic has had on his fellow military veterans, with 1 in 10 veterans feeling their mental health has been significantly impacted due to the pandemic.
Not only did Ash run the 4600 lengths of his hotel room needed to complete the marathon distance, but he kept going after that to try to raise as much money for RBLI as he could in the time.
A big well done and thank you to Ash and everyone who donated to his fundraiser, once again demonstrating how fantastic our supporters are.
