Jade fails to finish Marathon? I find this very hard to believe....besides which, didnt they re-brand it to Snickers???

 rotflmfao  LOL.

she was interviewed before starting and said she started training by changing her diet but couldnt live without chinnese and pizza and confort food and she did no pyshical training she is lucky she got as far as she did without keeling over

She got approx 18 miles further than i would have!!

having run many a half marathon in my time and was planning on running both the berlin and london marathon the year i broke my back i know how hard it is to get to run these events and for every jade goodey that doesnt prepare properly some other person who would of treated it seriously misses out not sure what the numbers like turned away are now but i think its something like only 1 in 10 get to run

 :goodpost: ;iagree;


getting into these races is a nightmare annd i find it appalling she is just using it for publicity! more serious runners must be cursing her.

Although if no ill-prepared, high profile types ran the thing, would it be as popular?

Just trying to kick up some debate coz I'm bored. No serious opinion on this, or any other issue that I have ever posted about for that matter. (Apart from short stacks and where they should be moved to)

i agree - all that free publicity about some half famous woman who cant hold things together, its the first time the London marathon has been sprawled over front and back page since..........

last year actually and paula radcliffe!!

;iagree;

It is very difficult for smaller less well known charities to get participants into events of this nature, however if you are a 'name' it seems there is no problem.

I have it on very good authority that TheTank is now officially a 'name', so get your plimsols ready lad  ;goodvevil; :D

I run alot, probably 4 or 5 times a week on average. But too be honest, I don't think I could run a marathon. It looks torture. 10K would be ok, but 26 miles...pain....pain...pain

This is in no way meant to be offensive ironside and if you are offended I will remove it immediately. Was just wondering as you were a bit of an athlete before your injury have you or do you participate in any wheelchair sports?

yeah the wheelchair beer drinking olympics :D oh and the lets bash tikay 5-0 world cup  :D

And now she'll most like appear in crappy magazines again getting the cheques promoting dieting and fitness training and how we should all be aware of it.


Am I too cynical?

There are alot of celebs who just do it for publicity. But some others do it for charity. They have my respect, although I am not a big one for charities in general, apart from a number of animal charities.

Lance Armstrong is running the NY marathon

paula radcliffe was for the right reasons and for that we should be proud.

jade goody done it for her own reasons though im sure she raised a few quid for her charity but then again so did the other 30k or so runners who dont crave publicity

About time he got off his arse.  :D

Yea, lazy git

Tank you owe me for a new laptop if the ovaltine doesn't dry out properly  ;tk;

My father in law has run 13 london marathons, now at 54 he knows his serious marathon timing days are numbered. last year he didn't get in, over 70 VIP/celebraty places were booked and never used this year.

Even worse he was looking at a serious time this year, but 6 weeks before injured himself and had to stop running.
He still ran it this weekend but with the chance of a good time gone he dressed as a giant flower for the Antony Nolan trust, who he donated bone marrow to (very painful im told) and saved a young girls life.

He ran 4hrs 20 mins (in fancy dress) whilst injured. travelling back through london on the tube with his medals and clearly having run a marathon and in considerable pain, people still had to arseheadness to push past him to take seats on the tube forcing him to stand for 40 mins.
 
People like him make the london marathon what it is, a test of the physical and mental limits of an individual,(something the jade Goodies of this world should consider before signing on the line)

Don t think its too late to sponser him BTW, let me know if you do.

Speaking of criminally overrated attention-seekers . . .  ;tk;

Lance Armstrong    ;tightend; :respect: ;tightend;

but that was taking the p*ss

I heard that she'd received whispers going around the course that there was a "rio ferdinand" style drugs test awaiting her at the finish line so she was attempting to dispose of the evidence.......

I am currently invloved in the filming for sky for jades salon - lovely girl - doesn't prepare for anything, never on time, but she has a very good head on her shoulders believe it or not, (with a good manager) she knows how to time her publicity to the second.

I think she is very clever - you may not like her (which I didnt) but once I met her I had a new found respect for her - never thought I would say that!  :blonde: In real life she is much prettier than in the papers/mags and she can put a dishcloth on and it looks good.

She may not appear to have a good business head but she has a good business in her beauty salon. Not surprised to hear she didn;t finish but to get as far as she did was amazing - although I immediately thought she must have hopped on a bus!

Have to say I know shes a bit of an airhead, but she's sweet and shes done better than the other BB contestants so good on her.

I'm sure that even though she didn't finish the marathon money will still go to her supported charity

Can't believe she was only 5 miles off the finish line :)

Funnily enough me too!!

Ok so its only the part about the dishcloth thats true........ :(

And its just the dishcloth that looks good............ :'(

Looking forward to seeing you only in a dishcloth..... ;scarymoment;

lol loin cloth would have been better ;)

TY to rod paradise for sponsering Gary and the Antony Nolan trust, spoke to him tonight at a wine tasting, he was well chuffed!

i have tried many sports on a come and try basis and i used to train at basketball every saturday but its impossible to do anything but atheltics up this far north as any other sport you need someone to train with (ie i would of loved to get into badmington or tennis) but after i broke my neck (2nd spinal injury) and became diabetic i lost intrest even going to the pub puts me out of breathe now although i have always thought about doing the marthon i am ashamed to admit it i would be lucky to do the 1500 meters now

What if we say there's a lapdancing club at the finish line?

i wouldnt bother getting out of bed as with my luck it will be like blackpool no wheelchair access
