Sir Richard Branson's 2011 Virgin London Marathon Jacket

A unique chance to own the distinctive bright red jacket in which Sir Richard Branson fired the starting gun for the 2011 London Marathon!  

It comes with a photograph of the Virgin entrepreneur starting the race, wearing the jacket.

This jacket is particularly special, as it was the very first year that Richard Branson and Virgin Money hosted and sponsored the London Marathon, since it started in 1981.  Watched by millions on television, around 37,000 runners were in the race last year!  A perfect and unique memento for runners who took part in the race, or are running in April.  

Richard Branson is without doubt a beloved, national treasure.  The maverick billionaire is probably best known for Virgin Records, Virgin Airlines, Virgin Mobile...  need we go on?!

He's currently being impersonated rather brilliantly by Usain Bolt on the latest Virgin Media TV Ad campaign...Keep Up!

Who knows, maybe a little bit of Sir Richard’s business genius will rub off on the winning bidder?!

The Virgin branded jacket is made by Regatta and is a 44-inch, size XL.
