Offical charity cheering points... on the Isle of Dogs

From the Evelina: I've added my own comments in red

Picture is of supporters last year

16 miles into the longest run of their lives, the Flora London Marathon finish line can seem a lifetime away. That’s when our team of runners need your voice to carry them through to the end and help them raise more than £45,000 for patients at Guy’s and St. Thomas’ Hospitals.
Guy’s and St. Thomas’ Charity, supporting the work of Londoner’s local hospital, will have 25 runners in the Flora London Marathon 2009, all working together to make sure your loved ones receive world class care. To help them along the way we will have a cheering point and we need your help to create a warm welcome so our runners know that we are behind them all the way.
There will be a hot snack and drink for any early birds, T-shirts, balloons, noise sticks and cheer boards to keep your runner on track.

Your help and enthusiasm will make all the difference and you’ll be pleased you experienced the London Marathon first-hand. (I will running fast here and looking out for past Pupils from George Green's School... possibly cheering?)

Volunteers are needed on Sunday 26 April from 10am – 5pm so if you can handle the pace email our team or call 020 7188 1196 today.If you can’t make it to the 16.5 mile cheering point, why not join in the roadside action at mile 22.5 by Guy’s Hospital and the Tower of London or mile 25.5 by St. Thomas’ Hospital and Parliament Square. (It's nice to know where all the hospitals are in the last 5 miles).

A map of the Flora London Marathon route will be a great help – visit www.london-marathon.co.uk to get your copy.

Finally I am short sighted and not the most observant person at the best of times... I shall do my best to wave but if I miss you... I apologise in advance.
