London Marathon Course Covered Entirely on Google Street View

[jojotter]

Great vid but is there a way to slow it down?

[sharpnup]

Said 6 hrs 11 mins at finsh line time clock, but 4 hrs 30 mins on screen shot??

Looks ALOT busier than I imagined... few trips, must take awhile to gather into stride.

[AHighUnicorn]

At first i thought, holy shit they are driving in reverse..

[BuildAfrica]

Amazing stuff!

[Aiden300Wright]

ive just been told i have a place in 2012 london marathon.. oo dear god

[jakeochiltree]

this video is amazing I would like to create one with street view images but for an entirely different subject.did you screendump every image and load into video editing software?

[BohemianArcade]

@jakeochiltree yes, exactly, used 'Greenshot' and Sony Vegas :) good luck it's very time consuming as you can imagine!

when i looked out my window today and saw all those black athletic men wearing vests with numbers on them i automatically thought it was slave auction day.

This video is brilliant, thanks so much for making it! I ran the London Marathon this year. Do you mind if I feature it on my marathon blog please?

[BohemianArcade]

@SquirrelLondon Hehe thanks, sure go ahead :D

[Cheeseball1066]

Great video and well done for doing it but the timer says 6.11.2 at the finish not 4.30.0. still well done spider man

[superluxe]

Great work. And I know it probably took you longer to create this than it will take me to run the marathon tomorrow... well, hopefully it will!

[BohemianArcade]

@superluxe Nice thanks for the comment and good luck for the marathon!

[HarrietBaulcombe]

This is fantastic, thankyou so much for all the time and effort involved. I'm now even more excited about running the marathon next week!

[nielsamd]

Thanks for this. I did it 4 years ago and remember every inch.

[callaghanmatt]

Strange, I ran the FLM in 2008 and I don't remember hardly any of that! The whole day is a bit of a daze! Fantastic video though!

[BohemianArcade]

@callaghanmatt Thankyou!

[MacTaylor]

Cheers for putting the effort in to doing this... harder than the marathon itself I expect.

[BohemianArcade]

Sure, if you load Google Earth, and in the bottom left hand corner you should see the 'Layers' box. There, there is a tick box with street view. If you click on that, little cameras should appear in the places where Street view is enabled. Click on any camera you wish and, it will take you into Google Street View :).

Hope this helps and thanks for the comment! Message back if you've got anymore bugs :).
