An NHS worker is aiming to set a new Guinness World Record at the London Marathon on Sunday in honour of the tragedies that have befallen his best friend.
Dad-of-two Ben Hardy will attempt to run the 26-mile race dressed as a tractor and hopes to beat the current record of 4 hours 50 minutes.
Ben, 33, is raising funds for the UK's leading baby loss charity Tommy's, alongside colleague and pal Ryan Willday, who has devastatingly lost six babies in four years.
