By mr immune on 18/04/2011 23:40:29
I ran the London Marathon route four times in 24 hours

I ran the course four times in 24 hours (well 22hrs08mins). I set off from The Mall at 5:20pm on Saturday 16th and ran to Greenwich, then Greenwich to The Mall, The Mall to Greenwich and then the Official Virgin London Marathon to raise funds

London Marathon At 50!
By Away With The Fairies on 20/04/2011 11:40:50
My goal was to run a marathon in under 4 hours so I could be officially classed as 'good for my age'.

So whose bright idea was it to run the London Marathon? After all, there are better ways to celebrate being 50.Anyway, having 'made my bed' I lined up (or rather cuddled up) with all those other runners who'd decided that the best way to celebrate

Shall I enter another marathon?

The VLM 2011 was my first ever marathon. I was an hour behind target, but I am still really proud of myself.

The VLM 2011 was my first ever marathon and I'm asking myself if it will be my last. Yesterday, race day, I had definitely decided that I was never ever doing another marathon again, but 24 hours later, I am already wavering.I am extremely proud

London Marathon 2011: My story of one of the greatest events in the world.

My second London Marathon, I finished in 4:14 and loved every step of the race.

Well, I have just completed my second London Marathon. My first one in 2009 was the last Flora sponsored event. I ran 4:27 in 2009 and was really disappointed and it was only a few days later I started to enjoy my achievement. This time in 2011 I

The Medals

My first marathon completed and what a great day the London Marathon was (especially racing to Wembley after to see Stoke thrash Bolton 5-0) but the slight disappointment is the medals, there isn't anywhere to scribe your name and time onto them :(

I have to say I was disappointed.

The London Marathon felt more like an obstacle course than a race. I spent half of every mile looking at the floor trying to dodge the half-empty discarded water bottles. After every Lucozade gel station the floor was like an ice rink where

One word: agony

I had a problem with my achillies and was in agony by mile 8, however my personal trainer gave up his race to stay with me and he encouraged me, bullied me and supported me all the way to the finish line. I owe this race to him and can never thank him enough. It was very hot but ...

London Marathon Highs & Lows!

Gels make the tum very delicate and a toilet stop needed!

Virgin London Marathon 2012

Not as Planned....

My husband ran the race. In training, just about everything for months had gone to plan. He set off strong. The family saw him at mile 12 and he looked good and happy - he was aiming for four hours. We were all waiting on Birdcage Walk, banners and balloons blowing in the wind. F...

My First London Marathon: Thoughts
By Kim Ingleby on 20/04/2011 10:44:34
General race day pondering and thoughts to consider :-)

On Saturday morning I found myself heading over to Excel to register for the London Marathon 2011! Eek! I have to say I was really excited and slightly apprehensive about what lay ahead. Last year I did some serious training which ended
