Sbh I have a bruised knee and no idea how I got it.
Hehe bear, no-one took me up on the offer either
Thanks for all the organising, had a great day and thanks to barlos and schmunks for seeing me home.
GillyMac, I have a massive bruise on my shin - no idea how it got there.
I had to go to bed for half an hour when TP and I got home yesterday as I had a thumping headache - no idea why......
Well done to all the runners
I had a great day, managed to stay sober as usual
a huuuuuge thank you to BB and Shmunksas well as all the supporter - you guys were fantastic!
incidently, where abouts in chandos were you? i wandered arounda few times but it's hard to spot people you've no idea what they look like!
hope all runners legs start to feel normal soonish and all supports sun burn starts to ease off soonish too!
Oh and I nearly forgot, it was good to see Karen Samuals make an appearance
Cheers for the beer Barley, kept me going for a few miles, that slurp did.
Oh and you are all amazing. The good will yesterday was fantatic, made for a very special day.
Barley - Don't you go dragging me into the Karen Samuals conversation! And thanks for asking, my sunburn is a little better today
Thanks everyone - just sorry I had my 'funny' turn when I was at Mudchute so didn't get chance to enjoy seeing you all as much I'd been looking forward to. Course had I been anywhere else when I had my turn I'd have ended up conked out by the side of the road!!
A slow amble from Mudchute to the end saw me feeling a lot better thankfully!
Glad to hear the 22nd degree burns are healing Becks
Huge thanks to everyone supporting yesterday. What a fantastic welcome which was very much appreciated. Hope you didn't get too sunburnt!
doh!!!
ah well it still doesn't open at 10.00am
Posted on the Group 3 page but a big thanks to all those who stood round yesterday. Had a stinker after 17 miles but seeing a few friendly faces help pull me along
Thanks 1 and all
Thanks everyone for your support, the hugs were very welcome on what was a tough day out in the sun
I have bruises on one arm, tight calves, and a sore lip where Barlos dedcided to use a piece of gaffer tape to wax it
I have lovely flip flop tan lines on my feet too!
I had a great day yesterday supporting. Lovely to meet up with new people and old ones (when i say old, I don't mean as in aging old before you all do a flounce). I was shattered at the end of the day and really wanted to sit down in Chandos rather than let the runners have a seat.
But I didn't. 
No bruises but my voice was still hoarse this morning. And I had a headache from hell last night.
Can we have a support group for Brighton next year please??????
Soup - was talking to someone who ran Brighton last year and I understand there is one point which runners pass three times. If VLM is 22 Apr as is rumoured to be, I will be in taper then.
These two points are making me consider arranging a support group for Brighton, but it would prob be on a lower level of support ie just hugs, cheers and waves; no special needs,
Its just in the mulling stages at the mo. Also if others want to organise something (instead of me) they are more than welcome to
To all at Mudchute.
Thankyou so so so so much.
Sorry if I confused you all by running up and down shouting 'is Nam here?'
I'd got my drink from the lovely T7 but wondered oif she was still there.
We are twins after all.
You really lifted me and I ended up having lots and lots of fun.
evening
great day and it was lovely to meet some of you
(reposted from Group 8 thread)
Great pictures.
I'd be up for a wee weekend in Brighton
not sure my liver would cope tho 
I've sent them over to the guys at RW so hopefully they'll be up soon.
(Schumkee, the photo from about 8am with you and the no entry sign has been removed I'm afraid!
2 suggestions for mile 17 next year;-
- Runners just drop off special needs at the expo and if they want make a contribution to the jelly babies / jaffa cakes / alcohol fund so they can be bought at Asda on the day rather than having to be carried from Expo then over to mile 17.
- A new post race venue!
And on the off chance that someone remembers this when putting together the lists for next year.... cable ties (rather than string for putting up the banners) and big plastic bowls (as well as plastic bags for handing out JBs and JCs)
Becks you can always upload them onto a photo sharing site like Flickr or similar and post the link. That would work.
You found me in the pub though!
Kinky costume dear.
