May 2007 - It All Starts Here
A terrible sight awaited all FLMers on the TV news this morning.
The Cutty Sark, the world's oldest surviving tea clipper and for so long a beacon of joy at FLM mile 7, lays smouldering, blackened in her Greenwich berth. There's something utterly horrible about watching history itself go up in smoke. I've no idea who or what started the fire but what I've seen has pierced my heart as I'm sure it will millions of runners and spectators for whom she was part of a momentous day.

Sat shivering on my sofa I recalled the time in 2005 I emerged from the pedestrian tunnel on my way to the start, speaking to Niguel on the 'phone as the early sun kissed her majestic masts.

Like the ship herself, I'm gutted.
