Default London marathon anyone?

Anyone feel like joining me on sunday for the London marathon - er taking photo's that is, not running!

It's on sunday, so short notice i know, but hopefully there'll be some interest from a few fellow londoners.

Wish I could make it - just too far.

A few years ago I was in London and got myself a front row place just at the final bend before the finish. I will never forget seeing Paula Radcliffe running straight towards me with absolute determination on her face and thundering along at a pace most humans could not sustain for a hundred yards never mind 22 miles!

It would have made a fantastic photo. Did I have my camera? Guess!
