Location of Support Group*

* Please note these are older images, we are relocated to the other side of the road! WE WILL BE ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE AFTER THE ZEBRA CROSSING, which is immediately after the water station, not on the left as shown in the following images.

Its also worth mentioning that with 1000's of runners coming past for hours and hours its almost impossible for us to spot you. You need to know where we will be and look out for us.

The support groups will be lined up along the railing in number order, in the image below you will be coming from the right, you can see us just after the water station (Vittel banners).

Remember, we will be on the right hand side.
And a link to the weather for Sunday

Hi Guys,

I believe that you have drawn the short straw and now have me in your group.

I don't think I'll be at the expo till 1pm ish on Saturday as reliant on a coach to get me there.

Is there any point me leaving stuff at expo or is it too late?

Who shall I send my info too? Do you want a pic with it or shall I post one on here?

***UPDATE****

I must confess Sister Bad Habit and Gillymac, but I have been a little naughty and have told you the wrong race number

Correct race number is................... 3143

Tony, you are a bad boy and I may have to spank you

lol!!

Welcome Sioux! Saturday collections from the expo are being done about two so you should be fine to leave stuff

you can either post the info we need in the thread here or PM it to me and Gillymac completely up to you x

Hi,

RW web avatar is Wiggrun,

aka Wiggy / Wiggs in the real World, nobody bothers with my first name any more

26232 is the number on my vest.

time to 17 miles - around 2hrs20, depends on start delay.

Green club vest, red shorts, maybe black baseball cap ( stands out quite well )

Requests - a cheer, ( make that a roar ) a wave, I might slow down to say hello as I refuel.

See you all sunday, and thank you for doing it, it's good to see the support that's out there. I know my parents will be around the course in places, an extra cheer at mile 17 will help massively.

Afternoon all,

I'm getting all emotional about VLM now 'cos I keep having to talk about why I do it. Tomorrow will be even worse as it's the media fest and I'll be up with the lark and not back home until late evening with just a couple of hours sometime in the afternoon to escape to the Expo. It's all worth it for the charity though

Thanks to you guys for organising this for us. It really makes a difference to see some friendly faces when things get tough.

By the sounds of it the only thing we'll see at mile 17 is the sight of Tony the Tash being spanked by Sister Bad Habit . I wanted to remember my first VLM but certainly not for this reason

Now there's no need to feel left out there's plenty of spanks available for all!!

Redhead I know exactly what you mean - I did London two years ago and the peeps I got hugs and support from off these forum support groups then made such a big difference to me, its the reason I've been the other side of the fence last year and this xx

If anyone's going to the expo tomorrow, I'll be at the runners world stand for a collection about quarter to five, five o'clock ish if you wanna come say hi
