Fred Tomlinson, the last finisher at the London Marathon, praised the support of 100 tailwalkers who guided him, emphasizing the importance of running for charity and the children supported by Rainbow Trust.
Shone Surendran's experience highlights the essential role of tailwalkers in supporting struggling runners to the finish line, serving as 'marathon angels' during difficult moments.
Tailwalkers step in once runners fall behind the pace, offering assistance, snacks, and motivation until the alternative finish line, ensuring everyone completes the marathon.
Support volunteers like Sean O'Sullivan play a vital role in keeping the morale high for participants, providing essential support such as snacks and encouragement to help them finish the race.
