Our Olympic Experience - the last day

On the last day of the Olympics we ventured to Embankment to watch the Men's Marathon

The early leaders






The route consisted of three 8 mile circuits and a 2 mile (or so) circuit around The Mall for the finish. From our vantage point we would see the runners go out and back on each lap

A superb experience - for me summed up by the BBC's Olympic Montage - BBC' s Olympic Montage

.... just call me sentimental
