No prizes for guessing the star attraction of this week’s pompoms calls! It’s the ✨ London Marathon ✨ - tcslondonmarathon.com/ - on Sunday 23rd April.
So get your sparkliest virtual (or real) pompoms ready to cheer on these fabulous HU runners for their capital day out:
🏃♀️ Realfoodieclub , going for marathon distance for the first time
🏃♀️ CandyCool , for whom this will be a first live marathon event.
Another edit: An exhausted carrier pigeon has just mentioned that Nikasa777 is also running the LM!
Have an amazing day, soak up the atmosphere of this iconic race, and don’t forget to let us know how you get on!
If you’re also taking part in a race this weekend (doesn’t have to be the London Marathon!) and would like a pompom cheer, please respond to this thread with all the info and we’ll add you to the list!
Editing to add: just been informed that we need extra pompoms, please, for Tabbles , who's taking part in a trail race tomorrow, Saturday 22nd April. It's the 13km, 401m elevation gain mid-distance option of the Maverick Adidas Terrex Original Mendips 2023: maverick-race.com/products/... Enjoy those hills!
(Weird coincidence - I did an almost identical run in the forest this morning. )
🏅 And this is where to claim your badge for a new distance milestone, be it 10 miles, HM, Metric Marathon, Marathon or Ultra (50K and beyond): healthunlocked.com/marathon...

Cheering you all on Realfoodieclub, CandyCool, Tabbles and Nikasa777. For the 3 of you running LM it will be an amazing experience. Look out for the cameras as you run over Tower Bridge.
Completed in around 1:22. Found this harder than my half marathons. I didn't really appreciate how uneven the trails would be. The hills were challenging I ended up walking around 20 minute.
Last flat part was really muddy with puddles that you had to go through.
