Today I went to the Excel Centre to register for the London Marathon and pick up my running number, timer chip etc… When I got there I was completely overwhelmed by the multitude of exhibitors selling every piece of running kit under the sun; clothing, shoes, watches, energy drinks, water bottles, fitness equipment and more. I couldn’t help myself… shopping spree!
I decided to kit myself out for the London Marathon day itself. I started by getting the official London Marathon / Adidas singlet and a nice pair of (slightly skimpy) Adidas running shorts. I then paid £7.00 to have ‘MarathonBlog.co.uk’ printed on the back of my new singlet!
Now you will be able to spot me on the big day! I also bought a dryfit t-shirt and got ‘MarathonBlog.co.uk’ printed on that too… I shall wear it on all my Hyde Park training runs. Finally I got an official London Marathon Fleece.
Other than that I have just been sitting around and eating pasta! All I can do now is wait…

Good luck! I might look out for you
