Couple Marries While Running London Marathon2006-04-23The world's greatest running event - the London Marathon - often features unusual stunts by members of the public. This year's race will be remembered for the bride and groom who married while running around the 26 mile route! Katie Austin and Gordon Fryer, dressed to the nines in traditional wedding gear, exchanged their vows on Tower Bridge - half way to the finish line. The couple raised £12,000 for Help the Hospices. Mr Austin said: "It's a very emotional day giving your daughter away and what a day to do it. "I didn't think there would be this many at the wedding and I am certainly not getting the first round in." Wearing a full-length ivory wedding dress Miss Austin said they had decided to get married during the marathon to "capture the imagination of family and friends". She said she hadn't tried running in the dress before: "It's absolutely filthy already... but we're not taking ourselves too seriously today." Mr Fryer said he would carry his bride over the finish line "if I've got enough strength left in me".
