I have a number and chip at home, but cannot make the race due to bad planning.
How would it work in terms of me getting it to anyone and them squaring it with the organisers?
Cheers
Matt
Hi Meon Runner
I would be keen to take your number and chip off your hands. My email address is /forum/smilies/big_smile_smiley.gif[/img]arrenmcneely@hotmail.com]Darrenmcneely@hotmail.com. Drop me am email and I will send you my address details. Let me know how much it cost you and I will add another pound or 2 to cover the postage. I will sort out the name transfer and details with the race organisers. Cheers
After spending Saturday doing shuttle runs between the bedroom and the bathroom due to a stomach bug, I was dubious about running today but glad I did. Good organisation and some great support from the marshalls and spectators, especially in the home straight, spurred me on to a PB !!!
Okay, so as it was my first 10 miler it was always going to technically be a PB, but I was delighted with 1.13.54 especially as I didn't think i was going to be able to get going again after the last drink station.
A huge thank you to everyone involved in the organisation. Well done to JAND for getting the results up so quick, but I see the photos aren't going up till the 20th !!! See you next year - have already ordered an overcast day !!
Strange, how it felt so hot but my car was insistent it was only 18 degrees.
Only myself to blame for a poor showing (10 minutes or so slower than last year) as I have missed so much training lately - only 6.5 miles in the last two weeks. Still, it felt good just to have finished.
Agree with Stuart - excellent organisation and very encouraging marshalls. Looking forward to next year already.
Good race yesterday i was about two mins quicker than last year. But still 15 down on my pb for this course. It felt so humid it the wooded sections.
Does anyone hav ea link to the race photographer's website?
Yeah, some of the paths certainly were 'tacky' !! It didn't half rain the day before - we only live a couple of miles away and it ruined our village fete.
Cheers Diana. I sure found it humid - only downside with this time of year, with the sun high overhead, there's not much protection from the trees.
We went driving up rhinefield drive on the sat evening and passed all the new forest runners doing teh course.
Can anyone else get through to the race photography? its still not available to me
I can't get onto it, says available from 20th July so maybe there's a small delay?
Thanks to all the organisers and marshalls, I really enjoyed it
still no pics
Third time, great event and superbly organised. Many thanks to Mike and the team.
Shame about the photos. Perhaps the race organisers will think differently who they choose to do the photos next year. I understand that there can be delays sometimes, however to keep the note: '(Available from 20th July onwards)' is very poor and should be updated to stop people wasting their time and would take no more than a minute to change.
Got buzzed a couple of times by a guy on a mountain bike wearing a "PRESS" vest so presume he was one of the official photographers.
Would have thought they'd have been up by now. Seem to remember last year's NF half marathon photos were up within 3 or 4 days with a much larger entry. Hope they're worth waiting for but not holding my breath as I normally look as I'm about to collapse !!!
Photos are up at last !!
As expected, I look ready to keel over. 186 if you fancy a laugh !!
