Results of the ballot for London Marathon places in 2009 have been announced… and I have a place to run!

There’s still the opportunity <a href=”http://www.london-marathon.co.uk/”>to run for charities in 2009, or sign up for 2010!</a> 

 Good luck to all runners!

Liverpool Street Station

Never agree to meet someone “outside Burger King in Liverpool Street Station” - as there are at least 2, and it’s not too easy to figure out where the other one is. 30 minutes later and we’re sorted!

In front of Thornton’s is a much safer option.

I don’t know Liverpool Street well enough to know a good meeting place but I have some favourites at other stations:

Waterloo - Under the big clock!
St Pancras International - Upstairs by ‘The Kiss’ statue
King’s Cross - benches in front of WHSmith
Victoria - difficult to find someone inside, better outside in front of Marks & Spencer’s
Paddington - in the posh cafe that’s up the stairs
Euston - in the sit down area somewhere near Harry Ramsden’s
Charing Cross - Just in front of the main station entrance (or middle of Trafalgar Square for the tube)
Marylebone - small enough that it doesn’t matter! somewhere near AMT

Cheers,
Ronald
