Mike Blasts Through at the Humber Bridge Half Marathon...
Mike Spenceley, a precision
CNC machinist at our toolmaking division ran the Humber Bridge Half Marathon
on Sunday 14th June. Sponsored by family, friends, employees and
Paragon, he has raised a massive £1020 for his chosen charity "Help for
Heroes". Before Mike joined us at Paragon he served 6 years with 42 Commando
Unit as a Royal Marine Commando, he chose the
"Help for Heroes" Charity because he wanted to give something
back to help his injured comrades. In the blistering 22 degree heat
Mike put in an amazing effort and
completed the 13 mile route in 1:39:13mins which placed him 159th
out of 1516 runners "a remarkable achievement for a non professional
runner". On behalf of everyone at Paragon we would just like to congratulate
Mike on his fantastic achievement.
