Good luck to everyone running the Virgin London Marathon today. I'm sure there are a lot of anxious people running and spectating after the tradegy in Boston but the British stiff upper lip will ensure that it's business as usual on the London streets and even sunshine.
My brother (above in blue) ran the London Marathon back in 2009 in 4 hours 19 minutes. I throughly enjoyed the day watching and waiting for him to run past. He's something of a marvel to me, we had told him where we'd be watching from so he could look out for us and he actually called us from his mobile to say that he would be passing us shortly - I'm lucky if I can talk on the phone during a walk home from station and he was barely out of breathe. Then he appeared, jogging along, even managing to smile for the camera that he knew was in my hands. Once he crossed the finish line he told us that his knee (a reoccuring injury) had given way after the first couple of miles but that was good as he hasn't had to push through similar aches and pains since his days in the army! Once again a slightly twinge and I would've been heading to the St Johns Ambulance tents not seeing it as a fun challenge.
