Hang around @Pipp. You couldn't recce the Bannockburn Inn in portgower for us could you. Next pub stop is in only 20 miles and with a name like that probably not the best choice for a bunch of sweaty southern softies to turn up at. Going to have to rally the troops for this one methinks.

Enough about your sexual activities @ElyDave ! That's the kent one by the way and your more than welcome for a cuppa and a run anytime your down.

Rest day today. 6 to 8 miles scheduled for tomorrow - shall we co-ordinate a cross the line together thingy - emotional tears and all that malarkey?

I will be there at the finish, principally to cheer, but also to be ready for the return to Land's End, after you soak your feet and spray magnesium and all that malarkey you athletic types get up to.

PARTY PARTY PARTY.

Hola fellow runners walkers and coat holders. 8.3 miles London sightseeing run - even nipped in to the palace and asked Liz if I could use the lav!

Wasn't in the mood for the run - high heart rate - don't know why so just plodded along taking in the sites. South bank. the Wheel, houses of parliament, westimister palace green park, Liz's london pad, st james park, hyde park, The mall, trafalger square, leicester sq, china town, covent gardens, tate modern and the globe.

Decided to test bloods before and after - 7.0 bloods and 1.0 blood ketones before. After bloods 6.1 and blood ketones 2.1. happy with that.

Many thanks one and all for joining me on the journey. 8.3 miles done. 0 to go.
