krysia flying at 35k

Just seen Krysia fly past at 35k in the Paris Marathon. She was smiling and waving and a few minutes ahead of the 4hr pace makers. All that work with Clapham Runners has really paid off :-)

Paris Update

Well here we are in sunny Paris - a warm day with a cooling breeze - bodes well for tomorrow.

Runners everywhere today - you see them on the metro, in street cafe's, all over the place!

Just sitting down to watch the Grand National. My money is on "Beat the Boys" - in honour of Krysia, Laurence and Fiona who will be beating myself and David tomorrow!

Clapham Runners - race marshals

There are several forthcoming races on Clapham Common at which Clapham Runners has the opportunity to contribute to worthwhile causes and events while promoting the club's activities to a local running community. The events are usually weekends and involve getting there in plenty of time typically for 9a.m. race starts.

For example on July 31st 2010 - Cancer Research Race for Life 10km - is looking for marshals. Volunteers please sign up by e-mail to claphamrunners@gmail.com. Other events will be notified as details are returned. Club tee shirts will be one way to try and get the message across.

They're under starters orders...and they're off!

Well, Krysia and Martin's Eurostar has left St Pancras anyway!

We're whizzing through the English countryside only slightly slower than Frank last night when he was meant to be doing a "70% 400m" (will he ever listen to Jon?!)

We're in a carriage surrounded by other runners and their respective support crews. Krysia is wishing the waiting was over and the race would start!

See you on the other side!
