Have heard that the above could be cancelled along with the main London marathon because of the Corona virus. I hope this disease will be well under control by then as so much sponsorship money needs to be raised for so many good causes

Oh no! That would be so sad. It's about 4 or 5 weeks away isn't it.

I've booked and paid for car parking so I can volunteer (I'm claustrophobic and absolutely can't do tubes, not even the mainline train through the tunnel into Marylebone so always have to drive to London).

Iโ€™m a right country bumpkin, not used to the big city at all. I will have to rely on my running friends to look after me if thus race goes ahead. Iโ€™ve raised ยฃ270 of my needed ยฃ350 so will be disappointed if I canโ€™t run it to raise the rest

I'm sure it's not a decision they will take lightly ๐Ÿคž

Apparently the book the Eyes of Darkness by Dean Kooks predicted this virus coming in 2020, itโ€™s scary really

Apparently.....

That word often precedes a load of nonsense.

I've heard that are going to scan runners at the finish line. Anyone who looks a bit hot and seems to be breathing hard will be led off to quarantine for six months.

I haven't heard it either. My main worry is coming down with Corona before the event. Even if it's a mild case, it would be annoying to have to take a break from the running, after having been so sick over the holidays.
