Guinness world record set at London Marathon by runners supporting the AKDN


On a sunny Sunday in April, Nash Pradhan and Dan McCormack overcame punishing distances and runners’ aches to set a Guiness world record at the prestigious London Marathon.
Disguised as the Super Mario Brothers, they beat over 30 000 fellow athletes to finish in the top 13 per cent of runners. True to the superhero costumes they had donned, their crazy dash between the sights of London had an important goal: to improve healthcare for disadvantaged communities in Afghanistan and Tajikistan.
