If anyone fancies sponsoring me my charity page is here Cheers, Mark S.

Was hoping for something closer to 4 hours but quickly realised that was not on with the temp and the number of people, was actually impossible to run at times due to bottlenecks, shuffling was more the order of the day in places. Passed Jordan and Peter Andre around 5K in, they were walking :w00t: The crowd was amazing though, really helped when the going got tough. For any runners amongst us it is an event well worth taking part in, even if it's just for the atmosphere, you will see London in a completely different light All ready entered next year, and I'll know better and get my self in a quicker staring pen, anyone else fancy making a team? If anyone wants to donate to a very good cause my web page is still open at Tommy's here, every little helps a wonderful charity that aids numerous families every year. They don't get as much support as the big ones but they do make a big difference for a lot of people. Have a look at their website Cheers, Mark S.
