Calling all Virgin London Marathon 2010 hopefuls

If it down to grammar then I might as well give upnow

I think there is little text speak on here because we are all old sods..........youngsters are having to much fun partying to be interested in running

John don't run too far as you have to save your energy till your picked.

do you think that the voting will be a bit like X factor and we have a daily vote and one gets chucked off each day............

I'm just relieved this closes on Wednesday and short-listers told on Friday, and then winners 10 days after that?

It's the only way to run a competition like this, the hope and excitement overboils at the idea

Sounds like you are going to self-combust pete.

Take an ice bath to cool down! 

If it is based on the active members ladder I do not stand a chance as there are over 1,500 ahead of me..........

.............still someone has to be at the bottom to make the others look so good!

trick to climb the most active ladder...................just do a review of gear and the next day you you will shoot up the table...............

yes...............i was in the hundreds till I reviewed some shoes and socks last week and suddenly I was at the top till lurker overtook me.............the guy who is 6th for the month has only ever posted 24 times but reviews kit.............

its a mixed formula but is heavy biased towards kit reviews.................the all time list is more accurate to postings

(and how we know there are some people on here who can talk - not looking in anyones direction LB )

well, I entered days ago, but its now occurred to me with all this talking of having to follow strict training plans that I might be in a spot of trouble. If I was to miraculously get a spot, I have a two week holiday to florida booked in Jan.

Admittedly I am going there specifically to run the disney goofy challenge, so I will be doing some running...

A note to everyone who is reading but to nervous to post, please post. It took me a while to pluck up courage to post my first few times, but there are some great threads out there.  Last year I joined the Just Get Round thread, and met some lovely people. Turns out one lived around the corner, so we met up and did some training runs!!

And its not just London Marathon threads either. The Bath Half thread has some very supportive runners too, they had to listen to all my blister woes last year.

I am really confused now, is it a compitition for a running event or to take on the eggheads. If it is on grammar and text talk i will struggle. I might not be too old to run, but i am for text stuff like m8, lol and omg.

2 dayz 2 go...or should I say two days to go.... not long now
