Robert Forster’s heartbreaking tribute to Grant McLennan. From Ghost Town

Great day out! London really is unlike any other race isn't it? The noise, the support -so much goodwill in the air, the sights - I really didn't think much about the running. Absolutely delighted then to run 3:46:29. My fastest marathon since London 2016. As @knocky1 says, I had a bit of a...

I’m in - first time since 2016. Looking forward to it and just going to try to enjoy myself.

Brilliant - well done @Badger!

So many others not listed In The City, All Around the world, To Be Someone, The Place I Love, Butterfly Collector. That’s Entertainment though is the pinnacle for me - just when you thought they couldn’t get any better and they produce a slightly out of character masterpiece. I remember hearing...

Yeah - I was looking out for you too but I barely saw anyone between the 3:30 pacer and 5:00 pacer and when I was watching I was mainly looking out for anyone in distress rather than friends! I think I knew about 20 people running yesterday and saw three of them. Good news is only two runners...

Well done all runners yesterday - some great times on a day many struggled with the unexpected heat. Had the usual fun day running the High5 drinks station at Mile 15. Slightly stressful - at one point I had five runners lying on the floor in various states of distress, thankfully I had a couple...

I thought you looked like a rhino? Give us a shout in Sunday - I’ll be the one with the radio trying to look important!

Good luck to those running on Sunday. I’ll be managing the High5 Drinks Station just after mile 15 towards the west end of Madeira Drive. I’ve been very impressed with LME’s organisation this year - BM is still in transition but I have a feeling it’s going become a bigger and better event over...

Do the honourable thing and fall on your own sward.

Hastings HM for me today. Such a good event probably second to Barns Green my favourite half in Sussex. I was really only going to use it as a training run for London in four weeks but felt good going up the hill so pushed on and finished in a pleasing 1:42:23. So nice to run in the sun even if...

Incredible - puts my 20 miles of mud and fog on the Downs on Thursday into some kind of perspective😀 Hastings HM on Sunday next.

And this one is great too

This classic about Kenny Dalglish

In a Division One game against Leicester City in 1976, he scored all four goals (two of them own goals) in a 2–2 draw. This was the second time that this feat had been achieved in the top tier English football and followed Sam Wynne's record during a 1923 fixture between Oldham Athletic and...

Now we’re talking

I'm not running on Sunday but will be managing the Water Station at Mile 11 - on the Prom just before you hit Hove Lawns.- (or possibly the one on the roadside at 8.5 miles by Courtney Gate if they don't have enough volunteers!). Good luck runners - I'll be ready to shout IIIIIgooorrrrr @Albion...

Getting two decent pints and change from a fiver was pretty good.

That’s why they are known as ‘pop’s best kept secret’ Fantastic band - listen to 16 Lovers Lane if you want a way in.
