    Well done on getting out and running.
    I live beside Greenwich Park...where I know you will be on the 26th April...and with some friends we usually go for a Sunday early moring run in the park(well perhaps more of a walk)...today we decided againest it. How flakey is that?

    Am inspired by your lists of to "do's" so off to write my own. Hope you have a good day.

    seese, I expect you to have the kettle on ready then at about 7.30 on 26th April........I'll be the lardy one, near the back, waving my thermal cup with a big sign saying "Hypno needs coffee".....

    .....ok with you?

    oops Hypno you had done MILES while I turned over in bed and slept a little longer :D:o
    AND you have a sparkly dining room.......oh dear, I can't even come close :rotfl:

    Can you (PM if nec.) say where in the route you are most missing support? When friends have run in the past I have gone to yell at them where they had those gaps. (near some warehouse in East London, miles from coffee shops etc:rotfl: ) Otherwise I've gone to Buck House area.

    I will confess to getting over emotional sometimes, so a quiet street is better, where no-one can see me wet-eyed & moved at others exertions :o

    I need support (preferably a piggy back) any time from 20 miles onwards!! If you have a pair of roller skates with you, they would do.......:confused::D

    OK
    Let's make this official
    Who wants a DFW meet up in London at a prearranged point somewhere along the Marathon route to cheer on our very own lunatics..... er I mean valiant runners !! :D
    I'll organize if there's interest -might even supply the sticky buns.
    I Would Rather Climb A Mountain Than Crawl Into A Hole

    MSE Florida wedding .....no problem
  • Wow Hypno, very impressed with a Sunday run and with amount of support for Marathon..

    Wonders if Hypno would also fit in a mystery shop on way round:rolleyes: :rotfl:

    I doubt it. Knowing Hypno it would have to be at least three mystery shops, there wouldn't be much challenge to one and on a 26 mile route shes bound to pass loads.
