26 miles 385 yards
Good luck to everyone doing the London Marathon on Sunday.
It’s been years since I ran a marathon (I did 3 Londons and the Vienna - very different atmosphere and architecture!) - but last night I was moved to tears by the inspirational stories told in the BBC’s run-up to the marathon programme. Steve Cram and Sally Gunnel are given 6 months to coach 13 “unfit” people to run the London Marathon (I’ll post up a link if I can find it). Update it’s called Run for Glory
It reminded me of the amazing array of emotions you go through as you prepare for the event, along the course, the finish, and afterwards hobbling around trying to find the “P” tree! Magic.
