Love it - Jasmin Paris has been asked to start the TCS London Marathon after her Barkley marathons triumph 👏

Interesting tracking the MDS this year - some of it is now in loops, rather than an ever moving camp, though they still have to carry everything with them. And they set off much earlier. We set off at 9am on the long stage I think 🐫

In awe of samantha ridley - 59 years old and she has just smashed the centurionrunning South Downs 50 in 9:22 and won her 50-59 age group. Here’s to super speedy 50 plus women 👏👏👏👏 (she’s also Susie Chan cousin - in the genes!)
