The London Landmarks Half Marathon by Bron Calnan

^{Following the cancellation of the Bath Half, I was left contemplating which race to do for my chosen charity: Dogs Trust.} 

^{I decided to run the London Landmarks after club members Rou and Donna recommended it. Another tempting thing was the amazing medal and t shirt that the event gives runners each year.}  

^{The magical thing about running  in London, is the atmosphere.} 

^{Before the race we could request a song to be played whilst warming up and before I set off I found myself dancing to ‘Shake it off’ by Taylor Swift.} 

^{At the start I met a Bristolian runner who was as shocked as I was being in the fastest wave. So we spoke to one another for the first few miles.}

^{On the third mile I was greeted by a musical choir singing the best show tunes. I found myself singing along to some classic songs from sister act.}

^{This race was very colourful and the one to be in for fancy dress. On many occasions during the race I found myself being chased by people dressed up by famous landmarks on the course.} 

^{The route as expected was nice and flat and a perfect opportunity to get a PB. My only recommendation is not to trust the pacers, they weren’t accurate.} 

^{Overall the race was amazing, it’s a perfect distance, if you want to do a bit of shopping or do a bit of tourism.}  

^{When the ballot is released, I’m entering again, it would be great to see a few WRP members out on the course next year  Just not in the lightning wave}
