I saw you, yes. I was wondering what sort of loon would dress up like that for 26 miles, and here you are! Well done, by the way

I ran for 2 years as a Spartan...wanted to push myself......never again

I was the first fully clad Superman who finished!

(there wern't many!).

Didn't see me on the box though - next year I may dress up even wackier to get on the box

Don't forget those scores peeps on the Predictor.

Oh no. You were probably spitting your breakfast out!

4:59 for me, having completed my Olympic Triathlon beforehand.

During the bike leg of that, I crashed after 10 miles, but carried on and was patched up by St Johns. They told me that there was NO WAY I could run, and there was a risk my leg might have to be amputated (no word of a lie), but I ignored them as the adrenaline and sheer-bloodymindedness took over.

Started Triathlon at 5:30am, finished marathon at 14:22. After that, spent six hours (and got 26 stitches for my trouble) at Worthing A&E, eventually getting home around midnight.

Certainly a day to remember, made all the better for the amazing crowds, including the hundreds wondering why I was running in a bike helmet and goggles…

Hopefully, the story will be part of the marathon coverage on Saturday on Channel Four.

This is you presumably, Greg? - Marathon man who battled injury is Local Hero

Yes it is. A bit embarrassing with the 'local hero' stuff, but at least the first two comments keep me grounded!

Knee is pretty much healed, but haven't attempted a run yet - this week hopefully.

No disrespect, but you're an idiot

No disrespect, but I don't think anyone associated with the two charities that will benefit from over £5,000 from my fundraising will care what you think.

I think it was meant as nicely as possible. And in the nicest way possible, he had a point.

I still can't work out if your incredibly brave or stupid!

Even I think I'm a bit of both, to be honest.

See! Seems you're a bit mad. But well done!
