Sporty brothers going the distance for charity

TWO brothers from Lincolnshire are putting in the final steps to train for the race of a lifetime.

Businessmen and engineers Shaun and Gavin McCarthy, both from Aunsby are all set to run the London Marathon in aid of The Samaritans, hoping to raise over £3,500 between them.

They started training more than nine months ago running just 1km and each week running a kilometre further.

The London Marathon is set to take place on Sunday April 27, and the McCarthy brothers will join tens of thousands of people who pack the streets of London.
