LAUNCESTON man Davey Green will tackle the Lake Windimere 'Ten in Ten' Marathon for the Brathay Trust in May — one of the country's toughest endurance running challenges. Through the funds raised, adventure weekends, educational and recreational trips can be provided for some of the most disadvantaged children across the UK. You can also visit http://www.brathaywindermeremarathon.org.uk">www.brathaywindermeremarathon.org.uk and see how donated monies will be spent. A regular marathon competitor now, Davey took part in his 25th event in Portsmouth on Sunday, December 18, completing it in 4 hours, 47 minutes and 51 seconds — his third fastest completion time. He is also a referee at a local level, albeit appearing less this season due to his running commitments.
