I still run the route occasionally, running from the Basingstoke side of Alton to Farnham for breakfast is a totally sane thing to do isn't it?

Not mad at all. Neither is running the LM in reverse 🤪. ITV website has picked up on the story.

Yes - I saw! The photo they use in that is the one of our group outside the National Gallery before we set off.

what was odd is that there appeared to be groups running nohtaram eht whilst we were setting up Fetchpoint. they were not going to cover the distance in the time they had - so no idea how far they planned to go.
I suppose that they might have been heading to support/water/marshal stations?

Hi Fetchpointers, I was waving my Fetch buff around and yelled "Fetchies" as I went past on the other side and got some lovely cheers in return.

Had a tough day but finished in 4:25. A great experience. The support from the crowds was amazing.
