MARM hits the capital in search of a PB in high winds at one of the best races on the calendar.
Will the weather blow out his chances?
Will Belgravia basement apartments flip him the bird?
Will Underground drunkards spoils the journey to the race?
A real pleasure to meet the MARMERS.

Wooo!

@reluctantfellrunner 2 месяца назад

Condolences to you MARM. You will have so many memories. As regards the wind up here it is so clever. If I go for a run on Morecambe Prom it is in my face the whole way and when I run back it miraculously turns and blows in my face all the way back too! Best wishes to you and your family.

@middleagedrunningman 2 месяца назад

Cheers Reluctant. Yes, a lot of great memories. That northern wind sounds like a right joker.

Barnsley folk are well known for our value for money hacks :-😂 A very heartfelt video this and kudos for the ways you remembered your late father.

@middleagedrunningman 2 месяца назад

Yes John!! So you’ve heard of the “megabus” then?

@tworunningbrooms 2 месяца назад

@middleagedrunningman we got the Megabus down to London Marathon many years ago. It was £1 each. We missed our bus for the way back and had to pay £12 which was a bit steep really 😉 Problem with it is it's like the old steam trains. Stops in every town en route.

Congratulations and another great video. Shame you couldn’t get a PB but your Dad would have been well proud of you!! You need to save some pennies up for next year and do the Paris Marathon which will probably land on the same weekend as Landmarks again. It was awesome as is Landmarks of course.

@middleagedrunningman 2 месяца назад

@jonathanwake2964 2 месяца назад

@@middleagedrunningman I did Paris in 3 hours 46 which I was happy with considering it was my first marathon. Anyone can enter so there are no ballots and having to run for charities. It cost me 130 euros to enter, however if you entered with another person it was less. I think you can register for 2025 now.
