The London Marathon 2013

Last weekend Single Girl World took a trip into central London to support all the runners in the 2013 Marathon. The Sun was beaming as we headed for the 25th mile!! We stood for 4 hours, shouting out peoples names and cheering them on! With only 1.4 miles left of the route, the runners were all in good spirits!! We even managed to spot Colin Jackson in the crowd interviewing runners !!

This year there were some amazing costumes and of course huge amounts of money being raised for incredible charities.

There is nothing better than shouting out one the runner's names and encouraging them on!! So much hard work, focus and commitment goes into preparing for the 26.4 miles around beautiful London!!! They have definitely inspired us to start running again and apply for a place in the 2014 Marathon. We cant wait to know how  it feels to cross that finish line with such a huge sense of achievement.

Congratulations to everyone who took part this year !!! Pop the kettle on and put your feet up!! You deserve it!!

London Marathon 2012.


The London Marathon is a 26.2 mile run across the city, starting at Greenwich Park and ending on The Mall.
This year we went down to support the runners and soak up the glorious atmosphere!!
We were really lucky with the beautiful weather and managed to get a great spot at the 800m to go mark.
After watching it on the TV for years, when we were there it was overwhelming to see just how many people were taking part raising so much money for so many different charities.
The road was a sea of colour as the runners approached proudly wearing the vest of their chosen charities.
It really is an inspirational day and makes you very proud to have this event in our city.


Congratulations to everyone who took part and well done on all the money raised for wonderful charities. You have definitely inspired and motivated us to get our running shoes on.


Love
All at Single Girl World xxx
