i think from what the wife and daughter said about £45 pounds
Lombster - I picked up my number this morning and for some reason they had also put me in blue. It took a couple of minutes to change to red - you just need to go to the information desk (just to the left of the number pick-up). They just give you a new number and said that they update their computrers later tonight. really easy and no hassle at all.
It was great to catch Ron Hill at the seminar thing as well
I'm taking a year off next year. I hope I don't regret that
Can't wait to read the race reports tomorrow, will miss you guys!
Have a good one x
Oh well! Still pre-registered for next year!
Good to meet up with some fellow forumites at the Travelodge
Now have about 8 faces I can put to names (if I can remember them)
Now to complete the gathering of tomorrow's kit etc.
Good luck to everyone for tomorrow
Waves to all
Blimey - I've just had to read through about 5 pages of posts!
Looks like most of you are now in situ. Hope you're enjoying it so far. It must be a fantastic atmosphere are the various hotels - full of nervours/excited runners and their families.
I treated myself to some new t-shirts at my favourite running shop (Run in Hove) this morning and deliberately drove the long way round just to drive past the park. Construction was in full flow and I'm sure it's now complete.
As always I had a good chat with Kurt and Fred whilst there. They certainly have that friendly touch. Will probably be goig back to try on the new Brooks Cadence after the marathon - they feel really light and ideal for those slighlty speedier runs and interval training.
GF - sorry you're not going to make it again.
just back from the meet up nice to meet juggler,Yvonne2, rondo, charlotte Davey, lombster, Sarah Murten, Karan Ives and Ian always nice to put face to names
Then had a walk under the start line Oh it's Oh so real sad man that i am as i paused under the line got a real jolt of nerves and excitement
Its really odd seeing the cones out already. Its really going to happen. To all those that have now arrived from out of town, welcome to Brighton!!
Good luck to everyone, I hope everyone meets their goal whether it is a time goals or just a goal to finish!!! See you in the morning!!!
Excellent picture post toby.
You're not sad getting that jolt of nerves and excitement, that was exactly what I got when I turned into preston park on the way to travelodge and saw all the barriers and corral entrances in place
There's grandstand seating at the finish line this year!
It's going to be a totally amazing experience running the last 50-100 metres!!
Sorrry but I don't know how to share the picture from FaceBook.
I'm in same boat- moved up from pink to blue coral today but still not showing on tIe app. I guess as long as our chips work that's the main thing.
GOod luck tomorrow!
I had a soak in the hot tub back at my parents place tonight. Feeling pretty relaxed now, fingers crossed I sleep well.
Good luck to everyone tomorrow and thanks to all the tips that have been passed my way. Much appreciated!
It's a bit late to tell you, but 8 metres before the finish there's a timing gantry which IS NOT THE FINISH, keep going til you cross the line under the big gantry with FINISH written on it - we've just spent the early evening putting banners up along the finish stright.
Enjoy the run everyone!
