Buck will be running for MND Association in memory of Nigel Thompson.
Nigel Thompson joined the Royal Navy in 1972 at HMS Raleigh and went on to Daedalus and eventually Lynx Helicopter Squadrons, Exercise Clockwork base, Commando Helicopter Force where he served in the Gulf War and finally the Bosnia Conflict in support of the United Nations.
Buck witnessed first hand Nigel go from an operationally trained and fighting fit member of the Armed Forces to a man confined to a wheelchair unable to lift his head.
“I still remember the funeral, no I will never forget, the funeral. Abide With Me, sung by a church full of mourners, sailors and friends, who sounded like a roaring football crowd at Nigel’s beloved Wolverhampton Wanderers. It stays with me always”

By @zanerutley
On the 27th of April 2025 I will take on the biggest challenge I have ever attempted, Running The TCS London Marathon 2025… and here’s why.
In 2020 I Deployed on Operations overseas with the Royal Navy Submarine Service. Whilst deployed I spent 12 hours a night every night for 142 days mentoring my friend Robbie in the galley helping him to become a submariner chef. Robbie and I had a very close friendship both in and out of work, often spending more time with each other than family, he was like a brother to me. When we returned from that operation whilst on post deployment leave Robbie tragically took his own life. For the last 4 and a half years coming to terms with his loss has been hard for everyone but I particularly can’t and don’t think ever will ever be able to shake a feeling of guilt. Having to come to terms with the fact I spent every single day 1 on 1 with him and not be able to detect he was feeling alone , scared and troubled deeply saddens me to this day and in many ways I will never be able to forgive myself for not doing more. What If?…. A question I can never truly answer but I wish I could. I will be running the marathon in memory of Robbie and for the @royalbritishlegion who do amazing work with Serving members of the armed forces their families and with veterans to combat issues they face in day to day life. Suicide is the leading killer in men under 50 and it IS something that can be prevented…. To highlight the importance of mental health, in particular within the armed forces, I will be attempting to break a Guiness world record for the fastest time running a marathon in full combat uniform and boots (4.47.17). If you are able to donate anything at all towards my attempt there is a donation link in my Bio.And the last thing I will leave you with is this …. Be kind to one another because one minute they are there on the next minute they’re not… In a world full of hate choose to be kind, in a world full of sadness choose to make others happy and in a world full of negativity choose to be positive …. AB1 TSM Robbie Hooper-Devlin , this is for you brother. #londonmarathon #mentalhealthawareness
