Editors' Tom Smith And Russell Leetch Complete London Marathon

April 18, 2011
Editors' Tom Smith And Russell Leetch Complete London MarathonEditors stars Tom Smith and Russell Leetch both completed the London Marathon at the weekend.

The pair ran the 26.2 mile course in a time of 4 hours and 15 minutes, with Smith coming in a second faster than his band mate.

Smith and Leetch, whose finishing time can be seen on virginlondonmarathon.com, were running to raise money for Oxjam.

They said: "Oxfam face many hurdles and struggles in the work they do.

"Their life-saving work is an amazing thing and for us to challenge ourselves in a different way and commit to a marathon hopefully will raise money and awareness to a charity we support very much."

The pair raised a total of £5,465.39, according to their donation page.
