“The volunteer group, which has partnered with Barnardo’s since 2013, planned to accompany their four-hour-long playlist until their speaker ran out” writes The Times and The Sunday Times.

Of course we stuck to our plan to cheer on all runners regardless of their timings!

We were still going strong several hours into the ⁦TCS London Marathon⁩ supporting over 200 ⁦Barnardo’s⁩ runners. At mile 24.5 we hope our drumbeats helped all the amazing runners reach the finishing line.

What a brilliant day TCS London Marathon cheerdrumming with Barnardo’s around 24 miles by Temple Station. Fantastic atmosphere as usual. Bit chilly for us but probably good for the incredible 50,000+ runners.

What a fabulous day TCS London Marathon Barnardo’s cheer station. We drummed, runners brought their moves and grooves. #LondonMarathon

David was struggling in the latter stages of last years TCS London Marathon. He stopped, grabbed the sticks off our man Gary and drummed along. This gave him the motivation he needed to finish. We'll be there on Sunday to inspire everyone on! #thisiswhywedothis

So very sad to hear that Paul O’Grady has died. We once had the pleasure of opening his ITV teatime show. Paul did his inimitable comedy turn as he attempted to drum with us. RIP Paul/Lily. #PaulOGrady
