London Marathon by mjb - Mon 18th Apr 2005, 12:19pm
Were there any FaT/BPBC people in the London Marathon on Sunday, other than those listed below ?

So far, I've found times for
Dan Darley         2.54.49
Becca Downing      4.11.47


For Comparison ...
Sir Steve Redgrave 4.21.36

Dan Darley         2.54.49
I've never run a marathon, but isn't that a seriously good time?

Our Brave Paula won the women's race in 2.17, the men's winner got 2.07.
Dan would presumably have got a better time if he'd done some training ...

More to the point, Our Paula was Brave enough to stop and have a shit by the side of the road. Quality.

It equates to about 6min 40secs per mile. That is a good time for a full marathon, but some way of the pace of the elite runners.

it appears dan is leading the way in the rowing world (see the slug) by some considerable margin. he would have had time for colonic irrigation and still won.

apparently Elvis did it in 3.41. I wonder whether he warmed up first....

I think someone should email the Slug and get Dan's name added to the list so that he gets the credit he deserves and Black Prince can be top of the list :)

Maybe we should get the BPBC captain to sort that out ...
