A schoolboy from Brockley has won this year’s Virgin Money Giving Mini London Marathon held on Sunday 21 April in the ‘Under 15’ category.

In March, young people from Lewisham were invited to take part in trials at Ladywell Fields. Alex not only won his category trial but also beat runners in the ‘Under 17’ category as well; automatically securing his place in the Mini London Marathon.
Alex, who went to Stillness Primary School, is a keen triathlete and trains with Crystal Palace Triathletes and Kent Athletics Club at Ladywell Arena.
His talents don’t stop at running; he also represented Lewisham at the 2012 London Youth Games in cycling and the aquathlon where he won individual Gold. He was awarded the Mayor’s Special Award at the Lewisham Sports Awards in 2012.
Alex says: "I am pleased with my performance in the marathon and I am now looking forward to the triathlon season."
