  5. 36th London Marathon aged 82

    Inspirational Marathon stories - Ken Jones

    Ken Jones

    82-year-old Ken Jones has run every single London Marathon since the first one in 1981. He likes to inspire the older generation to run and stay healthy and makes a point of running the race slow enough to talk to as many people as he can along the way.

    Ken, race number 24363, grew up in London and was evacuated during the war as a child. He was in and out of hospital as a youngster, and didn't take up running until he joined the army at 18.

    "I am passionate about running, and want everyone to get out there. I believe it's essential for a long and happy life."
