    People who talk down on marathoners for eating a burger or pizza post-marathon clearly have never come close to running one. It's months of tough training and sacrifices. For Spring races like London it would very often be winter training in the dark and freezing rain. On the day itself you cross the finish line completely exhausted after having burnt 3000 calories.

    Yes, all we want is a nice carb-rich meal, cold beer and a nap and you can comment on the dietary choices all you want but the truth is we couldn't care less.

    Good luck to everyone running London tomorrow, hope it all goes well for you. I did Manchester last Sunday and it was one of the best experiences in my life and the "unhealthy" post-race meal felt like the best food I've ever had. (edited)

    100% true. Did Manchester last year and smashed a massive KFC afterwards! It's the thing that kept me going for that last, brutal 6 miles.

    Genius Next time the Mrs threatens to do a runner, I'll start a sponsorship page to make sure she goes through with it. (edited)

    Only in Britain you can see the greasiest, fattest burger possible in the same post as a marathon.

    I've seen fitness models & athletes, people at peak physical fitness & 'perfect' bodies tucking into buckets of fried chicken after an event

    Nothing wrong with treating yourself after weeks/months of training, it's not like they eat junk food/takeaways everyday (edited)

    What about the nurses, junior doctors and train drivers? Surely they deserve some freebies.
