what time do you expect to be at 19 1/2 miles? I might have a walk down to poplar with a beer if it's a nice sunny day. will throw stuff at you if boldie offers me enough incentive

12:30-ish (give or take an hour)

ffs, more specific please

maybe you can call me when you get to the 10 mile mark and I'll head out then

At the 19.5 mile mark at 12:30 (plus or minus 10 minutes).

That accurate enough? 

It depends when I cross the start line (between 5 mins and 10 mins I reckon).  Then depends on how well I run, and if I'm on target or not.

I hope everything goes to plan on your way to The Mall, all the best and enjoy your day!

Thanks thumbs up

The sign at the top of the Mall that says 385 yards to go could be the most beautiful words I've ever seen written, and it's amazing that no matter how tired you are when you get there there's suddenly enough energy from somewhere to muster a sprint finish! And fail miserably by a couple of seconds...again.  Looking forward to that Smiley

Me too.

You can look out for that tomorrow. Won't be travelling too quickly, so will be easy to pick out and my face will probably be a similar colour to the vest.

Good luck Dan. I hope the weather cools and you get some drizzle - that's good, yes?

Also please make me double my sponsorship Smiley

That was bloody hard.

Far harder than two years ago and I guess I'm no good in the heat at all.

Not sure on my time, but would be about 4 hours.  Just recovering now in a pub with some crisps and a Guinness.

4 hours dead according to os

your splits look like you started to slow as soon as the sun came out about 11.40. not surprised, I did 13 miles round east london this morning, lovely conditions most of the way and then the sun appeared and killed me for the last 5k
