I am sure you've got some Grrreat words of wisdom.

Where are you starting HappyG(rrr)?

24972 Blue Start. Hope to meet some of you before.

I will be in Fetch vest with H A P P Y G writ large upon it. Though if it's chilly / raining I may have a bin bag on.

Remember it's Chandos pub, upstairs, after for meet ups too.

What we look like on other side of the road from Fetchpoint!


What happiness looks like approaching the finish!


What we look like with medal and PB!


What we look like in pub after!

Err, I've got a *really* long blog about it all from 2013 for anyone in VLM taper who wants to read all about it! Any first timers, feel free to ask away! :-) G

Rosehip - that was an uncanny bit of co-ordination by us there, given I hadn't read your post when I was putting in my pics! :-) G

Afternoon All! I'm on the green start (will be my 6th London)
Catching up on Fetch as I'm off work with the lurgy, guess I should be glad it's happened this week!

That's funny HG :)

The bus wasn't there last year - so don't count on it for Fetchpoint spotting

If you can't deal with noise - especially whistles - then earplugs might be useful for Tower Bridge, its supposed to give you a real high running over it - but I hated that bit

Ah ok, thanks. I’m in blue start and was worried I had been a bit ambitious with my time! I’m just hoping to complete it in one piece although under 5:30 would be just lovely!
