Lots of us relying on him training and being too competitive/proud to publically run slower.

Makes sense I guess - just stop oil with the snooker shenanigans whilst the other lot will just be happy there’s no traffic for a bit lol

I didn’t even know you’d all entered the marathon, some aggressive target times there, especially @Poet who was doing 22minute 5km’s last week!

He will get ChatGPT to run it for him.
I’m with @BadAsh I don’t think Macca will be competitive, or even try to be. Jog round in sub-4.
And from Dowsett’s youtube channel, looks like he’s carrying enough food for a multi-day ultra, and will be jogging with his wife.
Any serious celeb contenders? Cracknell? Raworth?

would be same for me, as its the GFA time for V50+, and I (somehow 
) managed 3h10 at both Manch & Boston (UK) last yr.
However I’ve got some virus thingy, so will just be bimbling round no pressure with the masses for fun. So no time estimate tbh, just see how it goes.
I’m in the GFA pen on tother side of the gates. Anyone is welcome to come take the p1ss out of me. I will return the favour 
I might even wear Fancy Dress

3:14 for Macca.
I’m going to run 3:13, which will include pulling up alongside, giving him a crappy useless already squeezed sponge then pulling away.

She’s a machine. Probably “just” a training run. Or it could be her comrades qualifier so may steam through.

Pretty sure Crackers is out, he did a rowing marathon recently and just had an op.
Harry Judd of McFly fame is running and did 3:14 last year

I think my maranoia is kicking in. Had to venture to the vile shopping centre for the opticians this morning - thankfully they’re lovely, but outside of that the place is infested with the community’s dregs. I almost wish I’d worn a face mask. Drinking loads, I was desperate for a pee but I was not going anywhere near those loo’s!!!

He’s down as attending the Cycle Show too. Bonkers that that is on this weekend too! Bad enough that it’s the FA cup games and the marathon on the same weekend.
