Hi, i'm doing my first marathon at Blckpool on 7/4/13. Been running now for 15 months. I started after losing 8 stone through dieting and gym exercise, got down from 23 stone to 15 st . Training going ok so far, even with the snow, got up to 12.2 miles on LSR. So how is everyones traing going, and any idea what sort of times you hoping for.

Hi, I am doing London, just found out. Training good, but I had never thought of doing a marathon before and I am overwhelmed with info/plans etc.. Time wise, well will let you know hen I do some long runs, probably 4:30, don't know if you gain lots of time due to crowds/queues.

I'm doing London in... 1month time, gulp! First ever. Started my running in Oct when I found out that I got in through the ballot - had never run more than 3miles before so it's been a crazy ride as I prepare for my longest run to date this weekend - 20miles. Still think it's a dream
