London Marathon Cheering
Millionth time unlucky? Well fear not, come and cheer instead!
Don't forget to wear your RED tshirt!
Please use #GGxVMLM18 on social media or #RedThunder
We've got loads of goodgym runners in the London Marathon this year but there's always us unlucky lot that didn't get in (or just have no intention of running that far!) but you can still very much be a part of the day and make a massive difference to our runners by joining the cheer squad!
The Plan
Somerset House (aka the BANNER group) - I'll be your contact for this spot. I'll aim to get there for around 10am to get the banners up and get us a good space. If you want to see the elite women then aim to get there for 11am but come and join us throughout the day.
Deptford --> Canary Wharf (aka the FLAG group) - Stephen Corry will be in charge at Deptford from around 8am and then be moving on to Canary Wharf. There will likely be groups on both sides of the road - either in front of KFC or the Black Horse. Stephen will lead you all to Canary Wharf should you wish to carry on the cheering extravaganza and of course feel free to join the banner group too
Temple Brew House, WC2R 3JF (aka the MEDAL group) - There's an area booked from 6pm at this pub near the Strand. See you all there!
Please join the whatsapp group for live locations and for general questions on the day! If you don't have whatsapp call me on 07887 802 793
From experience coming out to cheer for the marathon runners is a hugely enjoyable experience (fingers crossed for good weather) and given all the crap going on in the world at the moment it's really just a moment to refresh your belief in humanity!
All our runners and riders are here - you can download the London Marathon app and track everyone - look out for a more polished version landing on the unoffical facebook group before Sunday!
Sign up here if you are running and let us know your details here so we can follow you and look our for you if you're not in GG Red. Otherwise please spread the word about cheering so we can show everyone our #RedThunder!
Cheers,
Pritesh
