Wabo - if you've not met your supporter/s before, yell their name when you get to us. There are so many runners, that we may miss you otherwise. Of course, you may not want to stop, which is fine, but a yell will guarantee a hug!
I turn my back on the website for a few days and all of a sudden there are 16 pages of supporters and runners to get through! Meerkat you have done an absolutely fantastic job. Should I be trying to contact Minky and the rest of the supporting group? Or do I just yell their names on the day? I'll definitely be up for supporting next year - my physio told me I have the knees of a 40 year old (I'm 29!) and if I continue running I'll need replacements, so I'll definitely not be runnning next year. Will there be any emergency replacement knees at Mudchute?
You've done a fantastic job UM - I'll be on the lookout for the Count & littlesteph. My last day on the forum - travelling down to London tomorrow morning
I'll just add (for identification purposes) I'll be wearing an Institute of Cancer Reasearch black and white vest with Charlotte written on both sides and no 38716.
Jon - Yes, I sent the form off about an hour ago. Feel pretty sick about it, especially as the achilles feels much better today, but I can't risk doing myself months of worse damage by doing a marathon so soon. There are other races I suppose (sniffles quietly).
That comes with the territory, I'm afraid. All I can say is that I'll stay off the chick pea and broccoli curry on Saturday night to give you all a chance.
Meerkat - Tried signing up on your website, but doesn't seem to have worked. I checked your list of runners/supporters, but wasn't listed. Am running my first marathon Sunday and would love to be supported.

If you are a runner in need of a supporter MAIL ME.
All supporters very welcome.
But once hugged by Shambler & Dr Nic it took me another 3 hrs to get to the Mall

Likewise Valuxian.
I'll be on the lookout for M and Zilla for some much needed 18 mile encouragement.
See you there!
Moomoo you have mail
If I have the energy (unlikely) I will yell out for you both when I see the support point.
REALLY looking forward to Sunday now - and just getting it over and done with!
So can I join you all at mile 18?
Ronnie, have ya deferred?

is rotten when you have to defer, but supporting is such fun, next best thing.
