The big pre @LondonMarathon run in the can 38.5k in 2.39 with second half just a tick off Marathon pace. A bit of Thames tow path and a couple of laps of Richmond Park thrown in for good measure! #flowstate #29daystogo

@radiosportnz bedtime here in the UK & like the last 3 nights wanted my lullaby to be Wods, Coney & the team live from the Basin, but your 'Listen from Overseas' seems to be delivering a transmission akin to something out of Close Encounters! #notcricket
