Gordon Ramsay completes 10th consecutive London Marathon

On April 26, 2009, renowned chef Gordon Ramsay achieved a significant milestone by completing his 10th consecutive London Marathon, fulfilling his goal of running 10 marathons in 10 years. This remarkable feat was not just a personal achievement; it was also a charitable endeavor as Ramsay sponsored the Scottish Spina Bifida Association. Since 2004, he has served as the Honorary Patron of this organization, demonstrating his commitment to supporting individuals affected by spina bifida. In 2005, Ramsay initiated The Gordon Ramsay 'Buy a Brick' appeal, aimed at raising funds for the construction of a new Family Support Centre and Head Office in Glasgow. His dedication to this cause continued with the launch of the 'What's your favourite 'F' Word? Gordon's is Fundraising' campaign in 2006, which sought to secure ongoing funding for the support center. Additionally, Ramsay has hosted an annual St Andrew's Day Gala Dinner at Stirling Castle since 2007, further solidifying his role as a key supporter of the Scottish Spina Bifida Association. Through these efforts, Ramsay has not only showcased his athleticism but also his unwavering commitment to philanthropy and community support.
