To be sure we have what you need or for more obscure requests please leave items at the Runners World stand at the registration Expo. Supporters will be collecting them Thursday, Friday & Saturday.
Items should be market with: name, race number & support group number.
Location of Support area
With approx 40,000 runners it is almost impossible to pick out individuals as they pass, therefore its important you know where to spot us.
The support area is on the right hand side of the road at the pelican crossing by mudchute DLR station. There is a water station immediately after the 17 mile point, pelican crossing is immediately after the water station. I will post a close of google map/google earth image of the area with exact location shortly.
Supporters will be standing in sequential group order along the course. The area will be festooned with blue and yellow balloons so should be easy to spot, there will also be a large '100 yards to RW Supporters' sign hung up. When you get to us, look out for the support group numbers and go over to you're respective group.
Please use this thread to ask any questions and look out for further information which will be posted up until the race. Any final instructions will be posted Sunday 19th April.Good luck everyone..

Hello Happychap, Sezz, JON, BEN & SOPHIE!!
Just to say that I am between broadband providers and email addresses at present. Can't remember which of many I gave Barley!! If it's OK I'll email one or two of you via RW and give you an address that should [hopefully!!] be viable.
Limps
Tiger ***waves furiously*** didn't realise you bagged a pace for London
How did the Paris half go? Is there any wine left in France?
Hello all you runners. Our job is to make Group 6 the best!
Limper, I'm enabled if you want to contact me when you get a new broadband home.
Go go go go gooooooo group 6
Ok so that's Limper, Tiger and Tiptoes accounted for. Where are the rest of you?
Hi all - group 5 just checking in on the opposition
How's it going HC ?? Looking forward to this especially as I'm not running - hehehehe
So happy also not to be running this year Greeny. Got Paris on Sunday (wine stations yum!)
How's you? Our mutual friend still trying to get you to do silly MTB events?
You can go and report back to Group 5 that Group 6 is the bestest? It's not the quantity of the threads but the kwality.
<<<Casually spreads piles of party poppers, bags of jelly babies and digs out 'Hits of the 80's' for the pre-race party>>>
*bites heads off jelly babies and runs back to group 1*
Saw Alan on sunday after Cranleigh and he said you were doing Paris - wine stations sounds fab
Haven't had an email for a while off our mutual friend - I think he's given up on me but one day I'll suprise him
Hit of the 80's eh - my type of woman but group 5 still rocks
Shakes head at Jelly Baby detrius, cleans up and slumps down into squishy sofa.
Al had a good run Sunday, he was running for Dave at Judy's request. I MBT'd over to support but got lost so it was all over by the time I got there. Ooops!
I wondered who had David's place when I saw his name on the results I'm sure he did him proud - I did the 15 - that's far enough for me at the mo.
Getting lost sounds a bit familiar - me and Yas got lost and thought we wouldn't make the start - got there with 5 mins to spare though but had to start at the back - enjoyed it even though my legs didn't
you must've clocked up a few miles on the old bike getting there and back and getting lost as well

Hello Keith

Hi Team of Six!
Forum name : Pllumby
Name : Paul
Race number : 4335
Estimated time to mile 17 : 02:30 from passing the start line?
What you'll be wearing : Kidney Research UK Purple Running Shirt with "PLUMBY" on it
Any special needs* : Prayers. After my last Long Run of 22M on Sunday my foot swelled. I suspected a stress fracture. A&E insist it's Tendonitis and advise that with 2 weeks complete rest I might be able to run. If I make the start and am not limping when I get to 17 miles chants of "Praise the Lord/ Buddha/ Gaia/ Force" would be appreciated! (If I am limping some pain killers might be nice)
