But he's flat on his back at the moment crying about a bad back!
It's a week after my death at Nantwich so I'm afraid I'll only be there in spirit
Oh poppycocks.... I didn't die in Nantwich so I very much doubt you will....
I might do Nantwich...
YAY! Come and play wiv MEEEEE in Nantwich!
Done. Now don't say I never do anything for you!!
Groan. I wasn't going to race this year...

Hi Jay
We have had over 300 entries to date with numbers increasing at a faster rate as word gets out. Think you will be ok until your Feb pay day but I wouldn't leave it much longer.
Entry list is updated on the web site every week Entry List
I have just see the list. I will put my money on Julian (although Pugheaven might disappointed that I am not betting on him to win it).
Over 300 is definitely a good start. Well done.
A quick update to answer a couple of concerns some people have raised about the route:
I wasjust looking for pictures of the river footpath and came across this picture of part of the course, it's pretty representative of the greenway as a whole.
Thanks for that Mr P - made my mind up and have now entered.
I told a few of my clubmates about this race a couple of weeks ago and I see that they have now entered - I am sure that a few more will be doing it - perhaps a dozen or so from our club?
Having experience the parking fiasco at Windemere last year I am hoping that parking/exiting the parking area will not be a major issue for this event
Hahaha, that's ok Denis, to win a Marathon is slightly out of my league, but I'll be up the business end hopefully... fingers crossed no injuries... training is picking up now...so should be in good shape end of March, then April is going to define what I do I think... got Chrostleton 5k, Chester Half as warm up races... in May...
Cheers Pug
What time you targetting P?
Just entered ... it will be my first marathon. Was born in Chester but rarely get back thesedays ... will be great to spend the weekend there, see some relatives, do my first marathon and be able to "tip my hat" to my folks as I run past the cemetery where they're buried. And it's a flat course ... perfect!
Some news for runners - We have received approval to close the greenway to other users during the marathon, so no bikes, dogs or walkers to get in the way of runners. Plenty of room for spectators to watch & cheer from the verges though - leaving the path clear for runners
