So sad to see Haile Gebreselassie drop out - hope he's OK. Women's race was exciting!
Uh-oh spaghetti ohs

And I thought running one marathon would be enough!
:?
There's a guy who's going to run 5 marathons in 5 days this year... forgotten his name but think he's doing them all 4 charity :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:
Hoping to get in this year. Just waiting for Marathon news in August and then fingers crossed. Hope I finally get some luck.

Hey Tkicks! Do you mean Steve Edwards? He's amazing. He's aiming to complete 500 marathons in total but he's done more than 430 already.
I read about him in the Telegraph (John Inverdale's column) the other day then someone was talking about Spinal Injuries Association having places in the FLM and world majors on this forum and it's them he supports.
He's incredible.

There is a guy running in the 2008 Flora London marathon that will see him complete 7 marathons in 7 continents in 7 days. Amazing
I have also read about Steve and his challenge is amazing too. In the last 20 years he has on average ran a marathon every eighteen days and with an average time of about 3 hours 15 minutes.
He does raise funds for SIA and will be a great help in giving advice to their runners
The guy doing the 777 is blind. he runs loads of races for Guide Dogs and everyone knows him as 'Blind Dave'. If i remember right he's trying to be the first blind person to do the 7 marathons in 7 continents in 7 days. amazing
There is an article about Steve Edwards 500 challenge appearing in the March Edition of Running Fitnes out on Feb 8th
