After some advice. Got a few friends running in the London Marathon at the end of April and a handful of us are heading up to watch and support. First time I have been so asking any advice on spots to head for to get a decent enough view, avoid some of the main crowds.

We are also going to drive up so will be heading in via M4 or M3 from Bracknell handy to either park up nearby and walk, or drive to a local tube station and use the tube for the remainder of the journey.

Any advice would be great.

Cheers

Thanks for all the advice. I wasn't aware of the timing chips so you can see how they are progressing and what time they predict so that could be handy. I'll also take a look at the map and try and work out best place to access as there will be adults and kids going i think so will need something child friendly.

Cheers all. I think we will be leaving the kids at home, but will take a look trying to get over to Canary Wharf if possible.
