[CSouthwell]

[Garion]

Is there a copy of the first one anywhere?

And I like my little mention about the tram-bus run..I did know it would be a lot of running but didnt think it would be that bad lol

[Dr Who]

Cant wait to see the finished video.

I wouldn’t get your hopes up on the days video anyone, it's ok what I’ve done so far but not great. I'm still working on it now and its 1:50am!!!!
would guess its going to be 1hr 15mins total running time!!!

[Garion]

I'll get the popcorn ready!

[Going Underground]

It was a brilliant day we had a real laugh and I managed to keep my wig in place the whole time

I was feeling absolutely fine, no aches or pains and went for a run on Sunday

The highlights were
Seeing everyone in costumes at Hatton X at 0600hrs
Being asked for my autograph by a couple of school kids
Not coming anywhere near last on any of the runs
All the cars tooting and waving at us, which certainly added speed and stamina to the legs
Random passengers waiting for trains in Central London singing the "118 118" song
Being exactly on our estimated schedule for several hours until the slow District Line to
Upminster scuppered us
Al and Peter getting the burger king in for our final assault up the Met Line at the end of the day

Lowlights
Sam and Matt having to bale out at South Ken
Running to Ken Oly and seeing Andi get of the bus (which I beat anyway)
Keith losing his ticket for a couple of minutes at North Ealing which meant I had to wait for him as he didn't know the run so I didn't get filmed flying down the road to West Acton

Can't wait for next years Red Nose day and any other full network is going to seem very dull compared to this.....

A big thanks to our support team for the food and water drops and route change suggestion at the end fo the day

Your saying that shows how far we've come in three years!

Sorry, it's a little late, but congratulations to all that took part!

To get back on comic relief i suggest the following game for the first run whom can predict the correct order of Superhero/villians run into Kensington Olympia.here is my Prediction

1st Mr X (aka Palkanetoijala31)
2nd Batman (aka Soup Dragon)
3rd Bus Driver Man (aka Tangy)
4th IronMan (aka Nozzacook)
5th Superman (aka Garion4wales)
6th Bananaman (aka Scrxisi)
7th Supergirl (aka Sam)
8th Robin (aka Joy 54)
9th Green Lantern (aka Jamesthegill)
10th 118 118 (aka Going Underground)
11th Wolverine (aka Beer baron)

have i missed any 1.? is so i just put them before Kevin.

Seeing as Andi took the bus to Kensington (Olympia), was he disqualified, and hence actually came last?

That just shows a bit of smart thinking i was 4th into station if i hadnt i won easily anyway i was over 200m ahead by the time they turned right.

[nozzacook]

No bus & first to the station what can I say & in a very padded suit

[Garion]

Lucky you!

[Sam]

Well, I was last to the station thanks to some foul play upon entering the train.... GARION

[Going Underground]

And I was way better than 10th

[jamesthegill]

I was third or fourth I think but more importantly, I didn't spend the next hour wanting to go home!

[Soup Dragon]

I would have won easily, but I had to go back and rescue Robin's cape for him. It flew off in the middle of the road and I had to run back and get it for him.

No chance i have been first just used my brains to take the bus and u didnt catch me on the west acton run either that was a good example of how the 1st person into station radio back the situation.
