When 40,000 people lined up at the start line of the 2018 Virgin Money London Marathon on 22 April, there was one participant who was unique.
He wasn’t running the marathon, he was walking. But not just walking. He was doing the 26.2-mile distance in an exoskeleton suit, just months after taking his first steps in four years.
36 hours and 46 minutes after setting off (which included 27 hours 32 minutes of walking), Simon Kindleysides, 34, from Norwich (UK), set a new record for the fastest marathon distance in a robotic walking device.
