    Good luck... and yes, have loads of fun! Wish I was there. London is a wonderful city and would be great to jog through.

    i did it!!!!!

    5k in 48 mins - not the fastest time in the world but MY fastest time
    which ain't bad for one of the most unfittest people on the planet

    Well done wibbley! I'm sure your not the "most unfittest person on the planet" - they were all at home on their sofas whilst you were jogging round London.
