Should we banner?

No, that wouldn't be fair at this stage, but at least we can wave this (see pic) and cheer.

Final preparations for the big day are under way, and this has included making the banner that will hopefully enable Claire to spot us more easily amongst the throngs lining the streets of London on Sunday. 13 of the Clayton Clan (plus Claire of course) intend to be there to support Claire's fantastic efforts along the way. Strategically placed in numerous spots, we're all hoping to see her at least 3 times each during the race.

Nerves are beginning to set in a little but we know she has put in tremendous commitment with training and cannot have done more to achieve her objective of finishing. Hopefully she'll complete the course in under 4 hours, though this will largely depend on the congestion around the start.

Sponsorship keeps coming in and we're now nearing £4000 (including pledges). If anyone else wishes to sponsor, please use the JDRF donation page - this amount comes off the overall target shown on the Diabetes UK page.

Anyone who won't be there, keep an eye out for 38138 and shout your encouragement at the TV!!
