We need more supporters for the VLM.
We are well short of the minimum 20-25 supporters to make up the 10 suport teams.
If you would like to come along and join us at mile 17 here is the thread link (please add your name to the supporters list).

BOING!
C'mon sign up people. I've done it for the last few years and it's great fun. I'd be there this year but I'm on the other side of the fence and I'd rather like somebody there to return the hospitality
boing.
This is always a brilliant day out
The RW support point is right outside mudchute DLR station, very easy to get to
count me in as a support bartley, can I be in Sweetest things group?
I'll do what I can, not sure i'll be able to stand all day with my back as it is but will deffo help as much as I can
I'm 90% sure I can support . Will confirm later in the week.
I would if I wasn't running! I guess I will be giving something back next year though, for the support I have been in receipt of over the last two years.
Please may I be in Soupy's group if she does support?
I suggest those who are coming, or who want to request a particular group, say so on the main thread.
I'm deffo supporting all day and going to the pub afterwards as well. Well as I've got a request it would be rude not to.
Any more?? Come on - I've not done this propper before but having taken advantage of the mile 17 team its only right to give something back. I popped in for a bit last year and it was great fun, especially all the champagne going round at 11am.
Did someone mention champagne???!!!
Can you keep a swig back for me when I finally plod by? That would help ease the pain of miles 24-26.2....
Boing to keep this on the top page.
This is an excellent chance to meet other forumites at Mile 17 as well as offer help and support (physical and mental) to all those taking part in VLM.
I did it last year and it was a right ol' hoot.
If you think Will's and Kate's wedding is gonna be the highlight of April, you have not been to Mile 17 on Marathon Day
So c'mon and join the party.
I am currently looking at the cheapest and/or quickest ways to get in. If I become Barlos' Right Hand Woman again I need to be there at 8am. First train out of Swindon 7:30am. So looking at ways of driving part way then tubing the rest. Currently considering being at Ealing Broadway about 6:30ish which means leaving home around 5'ish.
It's nothing like Thai women do with ping-pong balls, if that's what you're thinking TP
Dom from Dick and Dom In Da Bungalow was mightily impressed. And I do believe he grabbed more than a jelly baby
Just come along when you can Caz. I suspect a few will be doing that.
