Dylan surpasses half-marathon mark at NSC

Eight-year-old joined by Christian Varley

Eight-year-old Dylan Walton has completed his personal half-marathon at the NSC in Douglas.

That's 13.1 miles, but he’s not done yet!

He was joined by marathon runner Christian Varley, who Dylan will be handing over to on Sunday morning as part of the Hospice Manx Spirit Marathon.

Some of the fighters from Friday’s upcoming ‘Thriller In The Villa’ were also running alongside.

Chris Pearson caught up with Dylan's dad, Jack Walton, at the rain-soaked NSC track:
