A hopefully inspirational video about the 2007 Flora London Marathon and a recognition of what makes it great. I have sought to get permission for use for the personal pics though some are from the Beeb – please don’t sue me! and some are my own. Also, I realise that the goals of an elite runner are very different from the goal of a first-timer dressed as a pantomime horse, but they both share the desire to get round the 26.2 miles as quickly and possible and to make themselves proud – this …

Great video, I’m running on 13/04/08 and this is really inspiring. I can’t wait, thanks for posting this video it helps to see the end goal when all you are doing in training in the cold and dark

great! You’ll have an amazing experience
The training is hard this time of year with the rain/cold/dark but the results will be worth it – hope you have a fantastic run!
Great inspirational video! The heat was painful but as the video say’s “I’m back for 2008!”

msb4pk
Brought a tear to my eye. The whole event looks so amazing.
1 month to go until the big day and i’m getting very excited.
See you all on the 13th April.
Our Vicar ‘Howard Pask’ is running for the first time this year, for The Menigitis Trust.
We are all 110% behind him. and wish him luck.
He has trained so hard.
What a knob. I’m “running” my first ever marathon this year – got a mixture of excitiment and dread! Video definitely helped, so thanks. See you all there. As for ms4pk’s comment – I’m sure it’s probably something to do with lack of penis size.
Sorry the “knob” comment was aimed at ms4pk, noone else on here.
Ultra and marathons are a different ball game – as you prob know…I do both. A marathon requires different levels of glucose than an ultra and is normally faster…a diffeint ball game…But both demand respect.
i watch this vid every time i go running thanks 4 da vid inspires me so much
