Just read it, a nice article.
How the hell you got a Gaurdian link before Barna, I have no idea.:smile:

 

[Dazzaref]

Hi anyone know his vest number for Sunday? I'll be on the streets watching the London Marathon and will try and give him a cheer when I know he's running passed (via the LM tracking app).

 

[Napster]

Nice to know he's named his son after the second-best left back we've had.

he talks about living in Surrey and mentioned getting a tube to Morden so I think he must live near me (my Mrs a few years ago said a guy who looked like him was picking up his daughter from ballet wearing a Charlton tracksuit). Anyone know specifically what area he lives in?

I believe it's Epsom Downs.

Thought he would do it quicker than he did, 5hr30, a poor time IMO. Brown done it quicker ;)

Powell out!

Out of the sun, that is. After all that time out running on a hot day, it will do him a power of good to have a nice rest in the shade.

I am sure he could do it faster if he was incognito, and didn't wave and chat to any and all persons.
He, and other celebs, are damned if they skip the public relations stuff, and damned if they take the time and work the crowd.
Well done Mr P.

Why is it a poor time and who cares what Brown's time was. The man did it for Charity not to beat PB's time.

How is it not a poor time? And brown also did it for chairty. It was a light heart comment, everyone likes to compare the two and state how powell is superior manager so was just comparing marthahon times

My best time was 3hrs 7 mins, back in 86. Probably take me all day now!.

Ah, I didn't realise it was light hearted as it sounded as if you don't rate Powell all that much. As for his time, as long as he finished I would think he will be happy and that's the main thing.

Well as an ex runner I can tell you its a massive achievement just to complete a Marathon, well done Boss !

You must be a real superfan if you remember PB's marathon time.

Ah yes, but you're forgetting that Powelly was stopping every half a mile or so to grin to the crowd and wiggle it*! :thumbsup:

Hope his daughter wasn't fooled by the look alike in the tracksuit

If PB does the Southend marathon he will look to attack a bit more and knock at least an hour off that time.
