Team Armstrong completes the Asics British 10k London run

Harpenden, UK - 1st July 2007 - Staff members from Hertfordshire software company, Armstrong Consultants, have completed the Asics British 10K London run to raise £3,000 for their nominated charity, Marie Curie Cancer Care. Eight employees completed the course on Sunday 1st July 2007, which took in the landmark sights of central London.

Over 20,000 people took part in the race and although the winner completed the course in 29 minutes, Team Armstrong, officially named 'Mr Armstrong & The Pacemakers', had all finished the race after a respectable 75 minutes. Marie Curie Cancer Care aims to raise over £100,000 from supporters taking part in this event.

Claire Jones, marketing manager at Armstrong Consultants and member of 'Mr Armstrong & The Pacemakers' commented: "This has been such a great experience for all the team and we're really thrilled to have completed the course and to have raised so much money for Marie Curie. We started out with the aim of getting fit together, but with the support of our colleagues, family and friends we have achieved far in excess of our initial target of £1,000 which is fantastic. We're now hatching a plan for our next charity team event!"
