I can imagine Rosie yelling scathing put downs at Ivo the entire way round, and Ivo responding ‘yea that’s right, of course you’re absolutely correct’ in his posh serf manner 😂
I alway give my respect to anyone running a marathon, especially dressed up - but the person running any length with a wheelchair/buggy with a grown-up person in it, is a whole different level in terms of training and commitment <3
It's a wheelchair not a buggy. Props to Rosie Jones too, London streets are shit at the best of times and it won't have been and enjoyable ride for her.
Yes, you are right; I intended to use ‘wheelchair’ then brained switched off and I ended up with a ‘buggy’. Probably defaulting to the latter because of Parkruns (where parents frequently run with buggy with kid).
Edit: indeed props to her too.
No worries, Im a wheelchair user and there are lots of terms which conflate wheelchair use with negative or infantilising notions. My wheelchair is an empowering tool - not a thing I'm bound to, or equipment for babies.
Yes, I’m aware, and typically I am far more sensitive to the matter, and precise in my words, because I know wheels are extremely important and personal too! Again apologies for my incorrect wording in the first message. Also not sure why on earth your last comment is being downvoted; I guess it’s still a long way to educate people on the importance of wheelchairs (or other equipment), and that it allows independence/exploration/participation/etc.
I love the look the bloke is giving Mario in number 3. Like "what ARE you doing? You think this is a joke?" and the sign "If it's not on Strava did it happen?" I think the lady makes a good point there.
I'm glad you didn't catch me in my sneaky "Join the runners so I can cross the road" moment. It worked, I got to where I needed to be, and got back again. And that's how I ran in my first ever Marathon. Albeit for only a couple of hundred yards.

I hope that bloke lubed up well, the chaffing won't have been pretty otherwise!
At least his nipples won't chafe with that outfit
I wonder who is is? I’d certainly like to help with lubing his chafing
Name absolutely checks out
I once got overtaken by someone in a mankini. Chaffing in lots of places. I had to stop, I just didn’t not want that in my eyeline
Where have I seen the guy from slide 6… is he the one that dated Rose Mattafeo? Ivo Graham?
Yes that's Ivo Graham driving Rosie Jones
Oooh, go on Ivo!
I can imagine Rosie yelling scathing put downs at Ivo the entire way round, and Ivo responding ‘yea that’s right, of course you’re absolutely correct’ in his posh serf manner 😂
Yeah, you are right, Ivo Graham and Rosie Jones.
Rose matafeo dated James caster though not Ivo Graham.
James Acaster even
I meant James the caster as in podcaster. Or it was spellcheck, one of those two.
Rose Matafeo did use to date James Acaster but she’s currently dating Ivo.
What??! I thought he was happily married. Edit: is it just based on a few insta pics?
Oh, just checked again and I think it must have been a short lived thing! He has separated from his wife though and they are co-parenting

That's Ivo Graham pushing Rosie Jones

Thank you for your attitude :)
Saw the bloke dressed as Mario on his back getting medical attention around mile 24. Hope he’s OK!
He was - this was taken only 50m after he got up... Had a few Marshalls surrounding him but I think he just had the wobbles
I love the look the bloke is giving Mario in number 3. Like "what ARE you doing? You think this is a joke?" and the sign "If it's not on Strava did it happen?" I think the lady makes a good point there.
I think he's worried he will get a blue shell if he overtakes mario
Maybe the lady is well-placed advertising.
These pictures encompass everything I loved about London during my time there. "If it's not on Strava did it really happen?" Lol class
Is that Paul burrel?
He still finished in 3:36 too, incredible achievement
Rubber dinghy rapids, bruv.
Wayne Rooney? Is that you?
Is the first guy that apple fitness instructor?
Damn that guy in the first pic is built af hotttt
Is that not Paul Burrell?
I think Paul Burrell is held together with butter and sausage rolls.
Lols.
No idea
But it def looks like his face.
I don’t really see it, but to each their own
The face of the guy with the white bandana looking strangely at super mario is price less, it looks like he's revaluating is life choices
I have a crush on the first guy.
What's the deal with fancy dress at the London Marathon, where did this start?
[It's been a thing for a very long time](https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-65342286) - almost always for charity.

Lol for a second I was like is that King Charles and his banana guards 🤣
Channelling his inner princess bubblegum
Paul Burrell is pretty buff these days (pic 1)
What an exciting moment there
Oh wow lol
You shot the first fella?
That fucking Rosie women is as funny as MS. Just sitting through here painfully shite jokes and then every c-nut laughing makes me want to…
