Ok I thought this race was over priced (£14 before the day) so when Steve Bowman gave his number to Kevin I thought he should pass it on to someone else. Anyway with 4 of our runners doing the Edinburgh marathon and no one else seemed bothered especially with the very unusually hot weather Kevin thought it was a shame to waste the number.

So we turned up nice and early to change the details the organisers decided to it was easier to give Kevin a new number. Then dissaster I lost my car keys as I was on my bike (photographer for the day) I searched quicker than usual. Luckily I had left them in the door of the car and all the robbers must have been in bed.

We managed to find Chrissy Bishop before the start (it was her fault Kev was doing the race) So I took a few photo's before they lined up for the start and a took off planning to take pics on various parts of the course. Within the 1st K kevin was 50 metres up Chrissy i'm sure she was 1st or 2nd female.

Anyway I managed to get to various locations on the course each time Kevin was farther in front and each time Chrissy had a bigger smile. She never seems to suffer always a smile.

I even managed to take a photo as they both crossed the line and yes Kevin was easily 1st overall and Chrissy was 1st lady was she exited and had an even bigger smile. Am I glad Kevin does not always listen to his dad. Well done to you both.

London Marathon 2010

Not exactly a newbie now but I still find a massive thrill running the capital in a skimpy Tarzan outfit. I honestly cannot describe the feeling when working the crowd and being rewarded with a collective, powerful, roaring cheer. It also helps to take away the constant thought of the pain of running and the distance remaining.

This was my 5th run and still I never know where I am, to me the race is about the crowd and not the sights. The forcast promised a very warm,  humid day but fortunately it didn't seem to materialise that way. Still too warm for me but at least some occasional rain and semi-cooling wind. In anticipation I added a sachet of Dioralyte to my pre-race drink to  attempt to stave off sweat induced cramp.
