His trainers, his vest, and six running gels that he intend to bring with him, were all displayed in one snap, along with one of them. Joel had planned his route, which included running from 8:30 am to 9 am, on a piece of paper where he awoke at 6:30 am.
The TV presenter plans to start at 10 am and cross the finish line at 1 pm, making the race his goal in three hours. He needs to leave his house once more an hour and 45 minutes later to head for filming, and he should do so at 3 p.m. to take an ice bath and eat before returning home.

This morning, Joe will participate.
Joel isn’t the only celeb to be running the London Marathon as fitness fanatic Joe Wicks also pictured himself in the car on the way. Taking to his Instagram page, Joe wrote: “Good luck to anyone running the London Mazza today. I hope you have a wonderful day. It’s such a special achievement to cross the line regardless of the time. I’m taking it nice and slow today myself.
No “time pressure” at all. I want to enjoy the atmosphere and encourage others, so if you see me and want a high five, just call me. I adore Joe a lot.
The husband of Georgia Toffolo is prepared to compete in the London Marathon.
Georgia Toffolo has been showing her husband James Watt support as he is taking on the race this morning. She had previously posted that he was injured so the pair were doing everything they can so James could still compete.
He is completely insane, but he is trying it, she wrote. After missing a month of running, @brewdogjames somehow makes it to the London Marathon starting line. You may be mentally ill, but that’s why I married you. Wishing you the best love. You will receive a lot of cheers from everyone. @londonmarathon @pancreaticcanceruk

In honor of her husband, Lindsey is running.
Lindsey Burrow was seen bright and early ready for the 26.2 mile run. She will be running in memory of her husband Rob Burrow who passed away in June 2024 after being diagnosed with MND in 2019. Just two weeks later she will also run the Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon to continue raising money for the Leeds Rhinos Foundation and Leeds Hospitals Charity.
And so Bobby Lennox’s Celtic trophy record was shattered by a Forrest after 45 years of dominating him.
James Forrest, the winger now out on his own in the club’s silverware pantheon, had an extra moment of history at Tannadice on the day Celtic put the finishing touches on another Scottish Premiership title.
The new record, which has been in development for ten and a half years, is twenty-six.
Forrest has won 13 leagues, seven Scottish Cups, and six League Cups in his 524 appearances, has 108 goals, and has now won 5 leagues. He has participated in 186 different Celtic matches.
Derk Boerrigter, Patrick Roberts, Daniel Arzani, Maryan Shved, Sead Haksabanovic, Mohamed Elyounoussi, Marco Tilio, and Luis Palma are just a few of the wingers he’s counted in the club over the years.
He has since had a backseat to the more recent generation of accomplished figures like Liel Abada, Jota, Daizen Maeda, and Nicolas Kuhn. More than 150 of those 500 plus games were substitutes, which shows his patience and professionalism.
His stats reveal a ruthless adversary, but when examined in a different way, they also reveal a fierce competitor.
He’s still fighting, despite reports of injuries, shiny new signings, extensive bench time, and rumors that he might be leaving, despite the fact that he has been fighting.
His league starts have been in single figures for the past five seasons, but he has kept going. Although he only started 20 or more league games out of his 13 full seasons, he has had a significant impact.
A standard-setter and a constant
Forrest is the living embodiment of Celtic’s grit, despite having too much class for everyone else in this division.
Although he has the most trophies, his parents have a dog in him. Although it isn’t present in his personality, it must.
He has 15 straight goals, and Callum McGregor, who has spent the last 15 years with Forrest and is aware of what he has accomplished, must think that he should make it 16 as well.
His first Celtic manager, Neil Lennon, recalls that “the season before he made his debut, I had him in the development team.” He excelled,” he said.
He “had everything,” he said. Brilliant footwork. You could play him through the middle, or left, right, or both. That incredible speed change. Even at the time, he was one of those players that would make you want to stay in your seat.
“Passing by people,” Low gravity’s axis. Nothing frightens me. I cherished him from the moment I first saw him play.
No one can deny that anyone from this time, especially the illiterate Forrest, can compare to those who lived there on stage, but it was a special experience at Tannadice on Saturday.
He lacked any pomp and circumstance. No attracting attention to himself through social media. Honesty, graft, and pride were what has always been present.
He has been one of Brendan Rodgers’ few constants throughout both of his spells, both for himself and for McGregor. Individual standard setters have their own methods.

Still hungry and still triumphant
What year did this all start?
Forrest, who was 14 years and 361 days old when he scored a left-foot shot into John Ruddy’s net just before the end of a league game against Motherwell on May 10, 2010 – 14 years and 361 days ago – was just a few minutes away.
It was a memorable debut for the 18-year-old. One goal in nine minutes.
Forrest’s youth is apparent in the video; he might be mistaken for a 12-year-old.
Edson Braafheid, Zheng Zhi, Morten Rasmussen, and Josh Thompson are also given the names of their former teammates. Relics from a different era
However, that scene also serves as a reminder of Forrest’s long history on the road. 24 000 people showed up at Celtic Park that day.
Both the player and the club have come a long way. Rangers won their second title in a row shortly after winning no more than one trophy during that same season, 2009-2010.
There was no cup final at all. Ross County won the Scottish Cup while their hearts were squandered by Hearts. Celtic won two games in Europe out of ten.
Along the way, Tony Mowbray lost his job. In an effort to restore the thunder, Lennon was appointed manager.
Look at his career, which has had some incredible success, Lennon continues. “Missing out on significant games due to injury or selection.” He’s had his lows, but he’s just maintained his equilibrium. He is unfazed by nothing.
When he is not a member of the team, he is not one to knock the doors. Some players don’t get it, but he seems to be saying, “OK, this is my role at the moment, but when I’m called upon, I’ll be ready.” He is also always prepared.
“And I still really enjoy watching him play. When he’s at his best, he’s still one of the most exciting players to watch. He has evolved along with the game as it has. He is currently a sort of passing winger with a threat of a goal.
He’s undoubtedly a man who has accomplished great things in his own right, despite the fact that I don’t put him in the same league as Bobby Lennox or any of the Lisbon Lions.
There is still no sign of him being sated by all the success, which is probably what made him stand out in history books. At 33 and 34, respectively.
He surpassed a great Lion of 1967 on the title-winning day. He’ll be in short odds to win the Scottish Cup final next month, two points clear.
JoJo Siwa, the celebrity Big Brother star, has been spotted for the first time since Kath Ebbs revealed they were dumped by the actor – just after JoJo left the ITV show’s home.
After dumping Kath Ebbs, JoJo Siwa has broken cover.
In the first photos since dumping Kath Ebbs, JoJo Siwas has been pictured looking deeply introspective as she appears to be thinking deeply.
Celebrity Big Brother star JoJo, 21, was in a relationship with non-binary Kath, 27, before she entered the ITV show’s house – but, while in there, she formed a close bond with Chris Hughes and revealed she feels differently about her sexuality, after previously identifying as a lesbian.
After Kath revealed that JoJo had dumped her, the Dance Moms star has seen broken cover in new photos. JoJo appears contemplative in the photos while holding her phone in front of her. JoJo’s blonde locks are re-scooped into a long ponytail for the trip while she is wearing a grey hoodie that appears to be makeup-free.

JoJo was ordering food from her hotel while she sat in the phoe conversation. Since JoJo revealed their relationship to Australian star Kath Ebbs in a shocking video released yesterday, she has kept quiet about her split from the Australian star.
After being “dumped at the party,” according to Kath’s Instagram followers, JoJo “took her place,” which created a very close bond with housemate Chris Hughes.

JoJo did, however, make future plans clear in a TikTok video that was shot inside her hotel room following the shock dump. The actress was prompted to respond, “I know you just came out of the Big Brother house, do you want anything?” She responded, “Yes, I just want to stay in the UK.”
Then, she was questioned, “Is that all you want?” and she stated, “That’s it.” Then, JoJo was asked, “You don’t want to go home yet.” She then responded, “No. merely the UK.

What a 20 DAYS!!! “, she told her followers after the video exchange. I stayed up all night admiring your gorgeous Britts’ love! I’ve been a little hesitant to show that side of me, so hearing that you guys enjoy seeing that side of my life is a relief.
She then stated, “I think we’re going to run this page together now 50-50,” thank you to my mom for a little while.

Following Kath’s heartache over being duped by JoJo, JoJo traveled to the UK to be reunited with the CEO of gay pop after her stint on the Celebrity Big Brother house. JoJo’s future plans are revealed. Kath, a heartbroken woman, stated: “In the last eight hours, I flew here, went to the live show, and I hope to] address my feelings of hurt and work through them like in all relationships.
I was dumped at the party before I could return to the hotel with my, I suppose, now ex, they continued.

I was informed that there were unsettling feelings and that they had realized I wasn’t the person they wanted to spend the foreseeable with, Kath said.
JoJo and Chris Hughes shared a close relationship while they were both working in the well-known house for the ITV show. After leaving the house, the pair were confronted about their relationship, as well as a cryptic remark JoJo made to Chris before the final.
As JoJo appeared upset following a comment from Kath in her letter from home, Chris asked her if she was ok, in which she replied: “Give me 48 hours.” When asked about the comment by Big Brother hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best, JoJo explained: “We’re going to play tennis on Sunday.”

JoJo responded to questions about her relationship with Chris in another interview, saying, “I’m so incredibly grateful for him. He has helped me through the house’s difficult times, but more importantly, he has helped me find happiness in this house. I’m so fortunate because he’s such a special guy and more than just a friend. We had a lot of fun.

A Married At First Sight star was rushed to hospital this week after suffering a heart attack. Tony Mojanovski, 53, who starred in the most recent version of the Australian version of the matchmaking show, was admitted to Wollongong Hospital in New South Wales on Thursday morning.
Tony, who appeared on the reality series Morena Farina, admitted that his “love of partying and cigarettes” had taken a toll on him and that he had been having chest pains prior to having surgery. Tony, who admitted it was “pretty scary,” is now recovering after admitting that he hadn’t “felt well for a while.”

Speaking to Daily Mail Australia, Tony revealed that his chest ‘hadn’t felt right for a long time’, sharing: “Luckily I went straight to the doctors. During the week I wasn’t feeling well. It has been happening for a long time.
“I was just feeling not right, like something was on my chest every now and then, giving me heartburn and stuff like that.”
Tony explained that his health scare was “pretty scary” and that he believed his heart problems may be related to genetics after explaining that his mother had tragically passed away from an aneurysm.

He also acknowledged that his lifestyle may have contributed to his hospital visit, blaming his exaggerated smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. He said, “I was smoking, the cigarettes, the stress, being on the boat, partying, just too much. I missed you, mate. I just need some quiet time to unwind.

Ryan Donnelly, Tony’s MAFS co-star, visited him in the hospital, and they shared a video of the pair hugging as Tony sprang into consciousness. Unfortunately, Tony’s other romantic relationship with his wife, Morena, isn’t quite as friendly. There were high hopes for the couple on the day of their wedding, as it appeared to have a real spark.
However, Tony shocked his bride when he revealed that he wanted a younger partner because he wanted children after only two weeks.
The couple left the experiment shortly after that, with Morena writing, “Good riddance, on her exit card.
Tony told 9Entertainment after their split that he wanted to at least feel the experience, to learn from her, and to learn about the issues facing humanity.

The Irish Premiership match between Larne and Glentoran at Inver Park on Saturday was marred by a large-scale brawl, which the Northern Ireland Football League has condemned.
Following full-time, when Larne needed to earn the point needed to advance to Europe, players and officials from both clubs began to play unpleasant scenes across the pitch.
Referee Jamie Robinson sent off Larne’s Aaron Donnelly and Conor McKendry, as well as Glentoran’s Fuad Sule and Christie Pattison.
A NIFL spokesman said on Sunday that “we are aware of and utterly condemn the incidents following the Larne vs. Glentoran game on Saturday evening.
We will be looking forward to their respective official reports, and NIFL staff has spoken with the match observer and the referee to offer support.
We will work with the IFA Disciplinary Committee to ensure that they have all the necessary background on this matter.

Glentoran boss Declan Devine said he “didn’t see much” of the melee after the game.
On and off the field, my players defended one another. He told BBC Sport NI, “I would be more irritated if my players slammed down and punched.”
I want to fight and be committed, maybe not to the level after the game, but it takes two to tango.
“Some players in our changing room are irate over how some Larne teammates engage in fights,” said one player.
The scenes were “really unsavoury,” according to Larne manager Gary Haveron.
Haveron remarked, “I don’t want to see it at games.”
“We take pride in being a family club, there are many kids in the stands, and that is not how you end a game of football,” Glentoran said. “But when someone attacks one of your team-mates, it’s only natural that you will react to it and that Glentoran will react to that.”
After reviewing the video, Haveron continued, “You have to tell the boys to step back because it keeps getting longer, but there was an antagonist.”
When the newly elected Pope Francis greeted the crowd at St. Peter’s Basilica in 2013, he made fun of the cardinals’ efforts to find a new pontiff in his native Argentina, which they had done in 2013.
Indeed, the conclave had been searching for a powerful communicator who would boldly assume the leadership of a business that was plagued by sexual and financial scandals for a while after Pope Benedict XVI’s resignation.
However, according to Vatican analysts, voters are now looking for a sober and unifying figure who can piece together an institution that has been weakened by his revolutionary style and restore stability to the Church’s central government as 135 cardinals, those under the age of 80, gather for a new papal conclave following Francis’s death.
“Francis was chosen because he had avoided the chaos and reform,” Francis said. According to Andrea Gagliarducci, a Vatican analyst for the Catholic News Agency, the next pontiff must be someone who can calm things down.

attempting to be one.
In 2013, the objective was to shift the Church’s center of gravity from Europe to Latin America, which is a sign of the growing influence of Christians there, and restore order to the Holy See’s central government, the Curia, which had come to be viewed by many as corrupt and dysfunctional.
Pope Francis was not hesitant to accept the task. He dramatically altered the course of the Church during his papacy, upholding the Church’s teachings and inspiring controversy among reformers.
Many people were upset by his reforms, including allowing priests to bless same-sex couples (in some circumstances) and overhauling the Vatican’s bureaucracy. Tensions were sparked by his unpredictable governing style, which relied on a small group of confidants and weakened the authority of the Church’s central government.
Some of the more liberal-leaning voices were also perplexed by Francis’ changes, particularly those that concerned the Church’s role in same-sex marriage and the role of women in the Church.
The cardinals are persuaded to prioritize selecting a trustworthy individual who will not overthrow previous progress but who will not overstep any boundaries.
Massimo Franco, a political columnist for Corriere della Sera and author of eight books about the Vatican, said, “We must move toward a pope who finds unity in the diversity of the Church, maintains love for the poor, attention for the most marginalized, and who also rebuilds, rather than restores, the governing institutions of the Church.”
Names are starting to float around. Louis Antonio Tagle, 65, a progressive and close ally of Pope Francis, is a strong contender. The Filipino would become the first pontiff from Asia if chosen. Additionally, there is 72-year-old Hungarian Cardinal Peter Erdo, a traditionalist and theologian known for opposing Catholics who are divorced and for his anti-immigrant beliefs. Cardinal Fridolin Ambongo, 65, is renowned for his support for anticorruption initiatives and human rights.
The Vatican’s secretary of state, Pietro Parolin, 70, is regarded as the most recognizable name among Italians because he played a significant diplomatic role and played a pivotal role in Pope Francis’s administration. Prior to becoming the Vatican’s top official for Middle Eastern affairs, Pierbattista Pizzaballa, 60, enjoyed a lot of respect there because of his expertise there.
Looking toward the South of the World
The choice has never been wider geographically. During his presidency, Francis appointed 80% of the cardinals who will attend the conclave, changing the way the clerical leadership is run by making it much more representative of the Global South.
The voting cardinals come from 65 nations, many of which are from Africa, Asia, South America, and Oceania, with Europe now accounting for 39% of the total, up from 52% in 2013. Additionally, fewer North Americans live there than they did before the election of Pope Francis.
Even though Europeans still make up the aproximate majority of the population, this means there will be more cardinals from the Global South than from Europe for the first time.
Cardinals from the Global South have a tendency to support Pope Francis’ efforts to end the conflict in Gaza and Ukraine, as well as social justice, migration, climate change, and climate change, even when that meant infuriating Western leaders who frequently expected the pontiff to take a more dovish stance toward Israel or a softer one toward Russia.
The pope criticised the US-Mexico border wall in one notable instance from US President Donald Trump’s first term, which included years of speeches from 2017 to 2021, saying that anyone who constructs walls instead of bridges was “not Christian.” Trump responded back at the time, calling it “disgraceful” that the pope had questioned his faith.
a more traditional view?
According to Marco Politi, a Vatican expert and author of the book Pope Francis Among the Wolves, the Church may benefit from the Global South’s increased presence at the conclave.
However, Francis’ appointment does not always mean that you agree with his goals in every way. When it comes to social and gender issues, Politi noted that some of the newly elected cardinals from the Global South are more conservative, particularly when it comes to the Church’s role in protecting the rights of women and homosexuals.
For instance, Francis’s proposal to allow priests to bless same-sex couples was opposed by DRC Cardinal Ambongo, who was elected cardinal in 2019. The pope was forced to dilate a landmark decision from 2023, which stipulated that blessings may only be given in circumstances not related to civil unions or weddings.
Another factor is that many of the cardinals are new, and at least 80 of them say it will be their first conclave and first encounter with the complexity of the Church’s central government, which is “intimidating” even for those who are already familiar. The Roman Catholic Church’s leader, Cardinal Vincent Nichols, told the BBC that he had anticipated the conclave would “pass me by” because he is only a few months away from turning 80. When he learned that the pope was seriously ill, he realized: “Oh Lord, this is going to happen to me.”
The pope wanted to appoint cardinals from far-off countries, but they may not understand how the Church functions as a global body that governs 1.4 billion people, according to Politi.
For the next nine days, the cardinals will meet twice daily inside the Vatican for pre-conclave meetings, though a date has not yet been determined for when they will be secretly elected inside the Sistine Chapel to choose the next pope.
Before the 2013 conclave, Jorge Mario Bergoglio delivered a speech that propelled him to fame at one of these congregazioni, as the meetings are known in Italian. He became Pope Francis a few days later.
