A solicitor took part in the London Marathon raising thousands of pounds for Children with Cancer UK.
Partner and Head of Private Client with AMT Lawyers, Rizwan Nawid ran the gruelling 26 miles of the London Marathon in sweltering heat after months of training.
This year's London Marathon was officially the hottest on record amid temperatures of 24 degrees.
Nawid was amongst the 40,000 runners who took part.
The 26.2-mile race was started at 10am by the Queen who pressed a button from the grounds of Windsor Castle.
Nawid managed to complete the marathon in 4 hours 43 minutes and 44 seconds and raised thousands of pounds for Children with Cancer.
He said, “Training for the London Marathon took a huge amount of dedication and commitment and I am so proud of this accomplishment.
"I am thrilled that my efforts have raised a significant amount of money for such a great cause, Children with Cancer UK.”
