I've just entered for next year too - I may not really be a runner, but I've definitely got the running bug.
My thighs ache hurt today going up and down stairs, but apart from that feel fine. So not feeling too bad about the possibility of doing it againnext year!
Angel well done..l that's why they send the invite early.. whilst people are still on the running-high
I'm not really a runner either but been doing it steadily for over a year....gives me focus.. and keeps me out of mischief when bored 
Yes out of the warehouse, should be on the train from Liverpool St now. Might wait up & show him my goody bag
Which Santa are you planning on?
i've already signed up for next year too...
i'm happy to note that i've been perfectly fine today, my muscles are not sore at all, i might be getting fit eventually lol
Wonder if he's bought you a present seeing as he didn't support your run. Then again.. he may be nervous meeting virtuals anyway
We talked about the December Battersea I think, but the conversation's slightly hazy......
Good evening peeps. Regarding the Garmin accuracy my 305 said 10.39km and my nike+ which is the best I have calibrated it said 10.15km. The thing I don't get is my garmin said 54.10, my nike+ said 54.10, and my chip time was 54.16. Considering I started the Garmin just before the start mat and just after the finish mat this confuses me.
Regarding Santa runs I did the Battersea park 6k Santa Run last year and thought it was a great laugh. It was one of the first runs I did after the Great North Run and found it very hard though.
boswandeling was for Mr.K. really.. he likes dressing up
The Nun's Run was good fun, but that was public London roads and bridges so commanded a lot of attention. Thinking about the Santa Run... they should do more London fun runs..where people run.. just for fun. What a great idea 
Signing off cos now the bloody forums are getting addictive.. like signing up for runs! Nite all.
Please could someone send me the link for signing up next year? My email filter thought it was spam, sent it to deleted items and I've just emptied that folder, without thinking, silly me!
Thanks very much
I thought this was a well organised race and had a very enjoyable day.
Managed the race in 1hr but could have done better but I stopped to give someone my drink who had just chucked their guts up!!
All in all I am very pleased with the result.
Well done Buela
What does everyone think of their t-shirt - I was well pleased with mine. Made a change from the cheap cotton versions.
I've just signed up to do it all again next year!
For my first race it was such a great experience, amazing atmosphere and there was always someone willing to spur me on.
Tracy B Congrats lets do sub 60 next year
Angel Congrats
Mr K can't believe I missed your costume but watching back the tv footage I can't remember the course either.
Anyone got any tips to relieve sore thighs
Andyp the free t shirt is huge! from snug to massive lol but it felt good to get the snug bhf top off at the end of the race to wear the big blue tent!
Lisa Edmeads Yes! I got told off for doing 10miles the week before. Have to just train for a 10k if thats what I want to race! Sub 60 it is.. you're on. Were you pleased you wore BHF top though? Sore thighs.. stretch/freeze spray/deep heat/massage.. erm.. the list is endless
Mr.K. Even my virtual Yorkshire friend saw the nun in the race
You are famous!
Andyp did you get my msg? Might have gone in your 'junk'
t-shirt was lovely and cool after run.
Have a good day all....
Sub 60 it is!!
Thank andyp
Unfortunately the t-shirt was absolutely huge for me!!I'm only tiny
also I was a little 'insulted' at getting Wellman 50+ vitamins 
Lisa - keep moving your legs - let the blood flow through your muscles.
Morning all
I got the Wellwoman 50+ tablets in my bag!
They went in the bin as I fail on both counts!!
TracyB - Thanks for your message- I replied this morning
T-shirt was ok for me size-wise. Can we sign up for next year already? I'd do it again.
Mr K - I'll look at the tv coverage again when I get in tonight as I kept it on Sky+
Hi Guys
DVD's being done as we speak
I watched it last night. The bits filmed seemed to show plenty of Green "C's" and those at the front but not a lot of us in the middle.
I've signed up for next year and will be definitely working for a sub 60minute time.....tempted to go out for a run now.....but it's bucketing down oputside!
I had a garmin 301 on and it put the course down as 10.01k. I have to admit that I did venture wide on some bits and did go from one side of the road to the other whilst negotiating flying water bottles and pedestrians walking right out in front of me!
Still buzzing! Looking forward to next race in June down my way at the ninesprings 9. "Only" 9k but rather hilly/cross country...shame there wont be hundreds lining the route shouting and motivating me along!
Edd
Just found my official chip time on the website.
I was quicker still at 59:42 (only a second I know but hey!)
Hi Tracy - you mentioned on Monday, if you recall
, that you wanted to do a trail run. I suspect this is too far for you but it looks fun & I am giving it serious thought.

I was on TV for about two seconds when they were interviewing a runner.
I looked a lot heavier on TV (LOL)
Would like to say tee was too big too
Andyp thank you! Will get it later, can’t get yahoo in work. You should have got a priority registration email for next year. I passed the Trees so you were in front of me (although not sub-60).
Schmunkee Fab! Do think you can ask for a donation to a charity in return for it though
Edd catch up with you next year then if not before. You can still run in rain
Hi Leoric – it does put about 9lbs on they say. I was on Capital Radio (here she goes again!) in the morning.. not visible Yaaay! but well heard!
T-dog Of course I remember! Do you think I was o’ding on WTS’ anti-o’s?
Last but by no means least Morning Mr.K. Would you like to start the forum for Bupa 10,000 2010?
