About Dave (Hon Chairman)
Dave is called Dave The Cave as he regularly runs London Marathon in Cave Man kit (With a Parrot).
I have been a runner for over 20 years and have completed over 180 Marathons and every other challenge I can find.
My first taste of disance running was for the opening of the Humber Bridge marathon 1980-1981. Just a marathon was not enough distance so the next race was the Kennedy memorial race. There was 52 states so just a mile per state, and the madness had begun. I have since completed 180+ full marathons of which several have been 100kms long, Half marathons 10 milers and 10kms must now take my total races 1000+ races. Off road races and map reading have become the norm and I have started to enjoy orienteering, real running with thinking.
