Alyson Knowles, a Brathay 10 in 10 runner and Staffing Officer at Brathay, came in 5th woman and 1st in her age category at last Sunday's Cyprus marathon. She was especially pleased since the trip to Cyprus and the marathon was her husband's 50th birthday present to her. Aly claims it was her hardest ever marathon due to the high temperatures, nevertheless managing a highly respectable time of 4.16.
Aly is training for her second 10 in 10 challenge, raising funds for Brathay. Last year she raised a magnificent £9000, helping set up a project in Ulverston Victoria High School which will continue for 3 years. You can sponsor Aly through the
