Lorraine Apr 2014 7:43pm, 13 Apr 2014 1,017 posts	0 Lorraine Thanks guys I really badly needed my coke when I saw. Everything was going really well until miles 8/9/10 when a niggle blew up so back went my target time but hey I had a great day and great to meet a few new faces although briefly.
Rosehip Apr 2014 7:44pm, 13 Apr 2014 3,088 posts	0 Rosehip Was good to see both of you and fab tto meet so many new to me famous fetchies sorry I gave up early and didn't help tidy up or get to make the pub - I suddenly realised how exhausted I was after the last couple of weeks and couldn't stand up any longer. - Having Brian to escort me back to Kings cross seemed like a sensible plan.

Iron_Mum Apr 2014 9:53pm, 13 Apr 2014 4,621 posts	0 Iron_Mum Trying to think of my favourite quotes from today and it's got to be one from Nellers's Little Book of Philosophy: 'Come on, nothing lasts forever!' Or perhaps Bru-Bru's tough love approach: 'Come on, I didn't come here to watch people walking!' I also can't stop thinking about poor Patrick, whose head hadn't realized that his legs were no longer on board with the whole marathon thing: wonder if he finished??

Nellers Apr 2014 10:08pm, 13 Apr 2014 27,963 posts	0 Nellers IM, if patrick was the guy adopting the "full foster" at 22 he was taken off by the St Johns in a wheelchair.:-( At least that's all that happened to him. It looked like he was going to hit the ground hard very soon. And my actual quote was "That pain won't last forever but the medal will".;-)
