That, was a very good Sunday!

Super grateful to be charged with warming and hyping up the peeps before the third annual Transcend 5km / 10km event.

Good vibes all round as people ran, walked, did a combo of both, around Hackney Marsh. Watching the range of emotions on peoples faces as they cross the line will never not be brilliant, from solid pride to ‘WTAF just happened?’ A truly welcoming event for all q***r and trans people.

And the best part? Half of the entry fee of everyone that took part went towards gender-affirming surgeries. Which is pretty bloody solid.

Roll on 2027….

Yeah baby, your London Marathon 2027 dream is far from over….

Here is how you can STILL run London

1. Get yourself a charity place. Pros - you have a place in London marathon. Con’s raising the money I harder than training for the marathon, unless you have wealthy mates.

1. Good For Age place. Google London Marathon Good For Age. Find your age and the time you have to complete it in. Pro - you get to go into a MUCH smaller ballot… like, a million times smaller. Cons - you have to run a marathon at that time before you run London marathon.

1. Championship place - Pro - you’ll run London Marathon. Cons - women have to run a sub 3:10 marathon or a sub 1:26:00 half marathon, men sub 2:38 for full and 1:22:30 for half. No Non-binery times are listed at this moment. You have a short window to submit your proof of race times.

1. Sports Tours International - Pro, you get to run London marathon. They take care of all the logistics, race entry, hotels, after party, cheer zone for your family etc etc. Cons - They COST, and you have to add your flight into the equation.

Time to get cracking on the speed work ready to get that GFA, I recon, don’t you?

London Marathon 2027 the rumours…..

I said ‘today’, I MEANT starting from today but I’ll be damned if I am recording that for the 729th time.

So..ummm.. yeah some whispers say today, some just say this week, the London Marathon website says early July… when does it stop being early July?

2019 - pre lock down, everybody thought runners where ‘joggers’ and ‘wankers’ 414,168 people went for 56398 places

2025 - the running boom is fast growing, the world and her wife are now runners. 840,318 for 53000 places.

2026 - Can I get any bigger? Yup. 1,133,818 people going for 59,000 places. Say what now?

2027 - Old school runners shake their heads in disbelief as an eye watering 1,338,544 people apply for London Marathon…. WTAF? But wait, there’s news, London marathon announces that there will be TWO days of London Marathon in 2027.

And that is where we are today……so now we play the waiting game and I remind you that if you don’t want run London Marathon then maybe don’t apply, just a thought.

Go and check your emails……..
