This is the Shame of the FLM, these guys have run more 1/2M & M's than most have run 10k's. Yet, they are refused entry on alleged Health & Safety grounds, whilst guys with boulders, groups chaining themselves together, caterpillers, guys with prams etc are allowed. If you want to be inspired/humbled, check out Mick's own comments on http://www.fetcheveryone.com/viewtopic.php?id=10203&page=1
Until FLM ever let them run, my belief is that FLM has lost its soul, and a fantastic PR opportunity!.
I've signed your petition and also put on a comment, i hope your pleas are heard as i'd like to see you both lined up on the start line one day !
ps, have you thought of having t-shirts made so the runners that are doing FLM 2008 can wear them to show their support, eg, 'Runners say......Let Mick n Phil run London Marathon' I'm sure once enough runners get televised wearing the t-shirts then even more publicity will be made !

Good luck guys
I'm reading this at the minute on fetch i would recommend you have a look it puts a few things into prospective
I have had the pleasure of meeting Mick 'n' Phil and they deserve to do this event purely on merit. Hope the FLM sort this one out.
Boing, boing and double boing - this thread needs ot be renamed for 2008!
Let Mick'n'Phil run
Let them run! I can not believe they are not allowed to enter, shocking.
