nice one James. He often has a good crowd but I guess it comes down to who is organising the route and how much local support they can drum up. Also difficult when you have to work but I'm looking forward to him coming back down south and I will be taking a day off work to run with him again. To re-iterate to everyone, Ben runs at YOUR pace, and many people come along and run a part of the way, eg the first five miles or whatever. |

Just to bump this but I've seen on FB that he'll be running solo in Glasgow next Monday. Unfortunately I can't be there but if anyone in the Glasgow\Clyde Coast\Central Belt can help then please do.

I'm guessing a lot of folk won't have this thread on watch, might be worth posting on Scottish Runners 2016 for best exposure........... I'll do that in a minute.

I had the great honour to run with Ben today round the Dumfries half marathin course. We had four seasons in one run including hail stones. Its an amazing thing he's doing. He's back this way in July so hope to run with him again. |

Will be running with Ben at the end of April in Twickenham two days before the London Marathon. Looking forward to being able to run the full distance with him and officially becoming a Marathoner with out the pressure of persuing a certain time! |

Has anyone sent a message offering help via the website form ? I sent a message for a date when he's near me, offering a bed, food, etc, but not heard back, that was about a week or 10 days ago. Not sure what sort of support team he has looking after the admin and planning future days. |

Gus, good on you for offering  I believe Ben's parents are looking after all the admin and future planning etc. But all my dealings have been with the running club local to my place of work, as they've taken over route/timing logistics for when he's running around here, so I'm not sure what time of turn around to expect on such requests. Speaking of which, if work load allows, I'll be running with Ben again on Friday. And then hopefully I'll be way ahead of him at Greater Manchester Marathon in a little under two weeks
