Marlborough’s mayor has played host to a Midlands runner in the latter’s bid to become the person to have met the most civic leaders.
The meeting with Alexander Kirk Wilson brought the mayoral tally of runner Mark Dabbs to 110.
Having already meeting the mayors of Salisbury and Devizes, and the Red Devils parachute display team at Netheravon, the Running Ambassador – an unofficial title bestowed on him by the Wolverhampton Express and Star – presented Marlborough’s mayor with a book of photographs of the town and a watercolour from his home town of Walsall, and received a shield bearing the town’s arms in return.
