Friend of mine did the ‘virtual’ version and is seeking sponsorship for knocking it off in 7hrs 55 minutes of moving time.

Not sure what the elapsed time was.

I’m not even joking when I say my 85 yr old mother could walk it faster than that.

I would punch someone who did that.

Laura and Jason Kenny keep their Olympic medals in their sock drawer. All 15 of them.

Someone wandering around with a marathon medal needs putting in the stocks and having rotten veg thrown at them.

Always remember training for my first Ironman. We had a cleaning lady in the office, very chatty and she would always ask about my Ironman, what was it, how was training going etc.

When I came in after it, she asked me how it went, well done on finishing etc. Then for the next month she kept urging me to enter London marathon as she reckoned I could ‘definitely finish it’.

The most blingtastic medal in my collection. It weighs 0.4kg - I know this because it pushed me over the baggage weight allowance on the way home.

I really want a buckle. I’ve a box of medals, but a buckle would be cool as. I may do one ultra only for this reason.

I got a pretty impressive buckle for that Great Virtual Race across Tennessee during the 2020 lockdown.
